Susquehanna Beekeepers Association Serving Bradford, Lackawanna, Luzerne, Susquehanna, and Wyoming Counties, Pennsylvania Welcome to another great year with our most favorite of insects, the Honeybee. The swarming season has arrived very early this year with the strange weather that we have been having. Some of our members have responded to some swarm calls already this year and are increasing our numbers in our apiaries. Hopefully that will lead to a quality honey crop that we can share with many. Unfortunately the small hobby beekeepers that mostly make up our club are facing a new challenge this time. We are being forced to comply with food safety laws no matter how much honey we are producing. This Act will limit our availability to provide our special local honey to those who want the benefits of that local honey. Please read our letter that has been sent to our Legislators and please contact your local Legislators and let them know that you would like to stand with your local beekeeper against PA Act 106. Cover letter to Legislators.
