CBA is excited to invite local backyard beekeepers to a FREE Extraction Day event at the Carriage House in Edgerton Park in Hamden. You bring clean supers of capped honey, and we'll provide extractors, hot knives, and capping tanks. It's a unique opportunity to learn about the honey extraction process hands-on from experienced beekeepers. Register to attend https://www.ctbees.org/event-details/extraction-day
What you bring:
• Full clean supers of capped honey without any brood or bees - maximum two per person ("Clean" means not dripping honey)
• A clean bucket and secure lid to collect your extracted honey
• A clean bucket to collect your wax caps (if you want to keep them)
• Large garbage bags for the wet extracted supers
What we provide:
• Extractors
• Hot knives to remove the wax caps
• Capping tanks
Other considerations:
Food - If you'd like to stay for the entire event, please bring your own lunch. CBA will provide snacks and cold beverages, and you're welcome to bring a non-perishable snack to share.
Parking - Not allowed within Edgerton Park. On-street parking is available outside the park entrance.
