Joanne Crosman, “The Bee Lady,” will speak to the Lakeview Garden Club at 7:15 PM on Wednesday, September 13, 2023, at Lakeview Community Church, 30 Long Pond Road, Rochester.
Joanne Crosman is a beekeeper from Caledonia, New York, who has been practicing her craft for over 25 years. Her interest in beekeeping started as a direct marketing study in agricultural commodities, namely honey and beeswax. The information she learned from her project helped her with her career as an agricultural lender, as she gained useful insight her farmers and growers faced during the production year. Over time, she developed a product line through her Log Cabin Acres label that continues to expand as time goes on. This presentation called, “The Queen and her Court – What really goes on in he hive,” expounds the honeybee culture and reflects Joanne’s many years of experience working with the bees.
The presentation on the mystery and life of bees is free and open to the public. Attendees wishing to make a beeswax candle can do so after the presentation. There is a $5.00 fee for candle making supplies. Those wishing to attend may sign up by e-mailing dmarkham@rochester.rr.com
