SUMMARY:Field Day Wisnosky Apiary in Plainfield
DESCRIPTION:2024 WillBees September 15th Field Days – bring the kids or grandkids. 3PM to 5PM for the official WillBees hive inspection and decision on winterizing. Then\, we can have some fun. \n26153 W Renwick Rd  Plainfield\, IL \nWillBees Field Days are about learning how to manage our honeybees.  But on this Apiary\, there is a lighted pavilion\, walking trails and 3 acre lake stocked with Large Mouth Bass\, Blue Gill and Channel Cat. If you want to fish\, or just have fun\, I have boats\, but fishing from the shore is very good.  You may keep what you catch.  I have been told to harvest.  But\, I have not.  I have many fishing rods and lures. Or bring your own gear. \nI will have water\, beer\, some of my Mead and Smores material if you would like to hang around\, bring your own picnic fixings.  There is a grill. The sunsets are typically spectacular. \nMost of our Field Days have been “what is going on – Let’s count the mites.”  Last year at my Plainfield Apiary\, there were virtually no mites counted.  But\, I ended up with no honeybees in May.  What went wrong? \nI have 4 Langstroth hives. Just like last year\, one is doing spectacular\, one ok and 2 marginal. A big surprise is that one of the weakest was a NUC. This is my second such experience. Maybe the NUC theory is just a theory.  The girls want a new mama – aka package with a queen in a cage. \nDave Meyer has agreed – bless him\, to do the inspection and to provide advice on what to do and maybe even DO IT in real time. Split\, combine.  I dunno. \nThe Apiary 26153 W Renwick Rd Plainfield\, Il is the corner of Renwick Road and County Line Road.  Your GPS will take you to the horse farm next door.  Renwick Road is E – W. The County has installed curve markers on the South side of Renwick Road.  My driveway is between the last 2 curve markers going West on Renwick and the first 2 curve markers going East.  Look up the address on Google Earth and you will see the lake. \nI will have American flags at the gate. And\, thanks to Keith\, you will see old glory flying in the middle of the property. \nHope to see you then.
