COLUMBIA COUNTY BEEKEEPERS

​May 27th Zoom Meeting with Frank Mortimer

Picture
​We are delighted to have Frank Mortimer as our guest to speak on Inspections and Honey Supering, followed by a Q&A. Frank is an adjunct instructor at the Cornell University Master Beekeeping Program, Vice President of the New Jersey State Beekeepers Association, and a Certified Master Beekeeper. Frank is also the author of “Bee People and the Bugs They Love”, (Kensington Publishing, March 2021) and has written multiple articles featured in the widely circulated Bee Culture Magazine. As president of the Northeast NJ Beekeepers Association—a position he has held since 2011—he has: significantly grown his club’s membership, aligned the Northeast NJ Beekeepers with Ramapo College, and founded the “Honey Cup,” an annual honey tasting competition. Frank has promoted beekeeping throughout the Northeast by speaking to everyone from school children to gardening clubs and civic organizations. He has led beekeeping seminars across New Jersey and at The New York Botanical Garden. In addition, he successfully campaigned for his hometown of Ridgewood to become New Jersey’s first “Bee City USA.”  Frank is married, has three children, and beekeeping is something the whole family enjoys doing together. 
Meeting actually started about the 6:20 minute mark.
