Now that the AGM/Conference season for state associations is over the AHBIC team are busy working on T2m and ensuring that our biosecurity programs remain funded and operational. A members body, AHBIC executive and congress subcommittee meetings are being held this month.
The last month has been a sad one for our industry with several well known beekeepers passing away.
Our condolences and thoughts are with the following families:
Gell family Maryborough Vic with the passing of Alan Gell;
Rich family Maryborough Vic with the passing of Brian Rich;
Croker family Ulladulla NSW with the passing of Alan Croker; and
Olley family SE Qld with the passing of Ken Olley.
Very knowledgeable beekeepers who worked both within the industry and for the industry. Fortunately, this knowledge would have been passed down within these multi -generational beekeeping families.
