Celebrate Earth Day w/Honey Inspired Dinner + Technical & Practical Sides of Beekeeping 101

Frank Linton /Technical (founder of Colonymonitoring .com) and Jeff Miller/Practical (Founder of DCHoneyBees.com) will address the Harvard Club

Frank Linton, Ed.M. 1986, is an EAS-certified Master Beekeeper. He keeps a glass-walled observation hive in his house and a couple of hives on his deck. He manages the beekeeping technology website http://colonymonitoring.com.

Frank will be speaking about beekeeping practices, including new practices required by globalization and local climate change.

Jeff Miller is a real estate professional by background who got stung by this hobby in the market downturn. Little did he know the underground passion for honeybees and their keeping in this area! Over 100 hives will be propagated this spring thanks to the work and outreach of his non-profit DC Honeybees, for enthusiasts from all walks of life and bee experience. Jeff focuses on the DC area for The Georgetown Honeybee Company and would love to be an enthusiastic mentor for you and your new hive.

Jeff will be speaking about the challenges of urban beekeeping, the laws surrounding it in DC, the benefits, and the future.
