PBBA will now be meeting at the Ashland Booster Club at 99 Main Street in Ashland.

This month only we will be meet on Monday, November 11 (NOT Tuesday).

**Please let others know and respond to this email to let me know you got it. ***


Dear PBBA Members,

Starting this month the club will be meeting at the Ashland Booster Club. The American Legion has significantly increased the price to use their space and the booster club has been very generous in allowing us to meet there.

Our next meeting will be on Monday, November 11th at the booster club. Subsequent meetings will be the second Tuesday of the month as usual. Our general meeting time will still be at 7pm. The booster club offers a fine facility with good heat and air conditioning and Wi-Fi so it meets our purposes. It is located at 99 Main Street in Ashland which is just down the road from the Legion Hall.

There is some parking at the booster club. We also have permission to park next door at the old Busky's auto repair at 87 Main Street and across the street at Horsch Garage Equipment Inc. at 98 Main Street.

The agenda and zoom link will be sent later this week. We look forward to seeing everyone at our new location!

Rebecca Green
PBBA President

Reyah Carlson Apitherapy Presentation
August 17 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Want to know what’s in a beehive besides honey?

Come see Reyah Carlson speak about apitherapy and the products from a hive.
Reyah is a nationally and internationally recognized apitherapist and a member of the American Apitherapy Society.

When: Saturday, August 17, 2024 from 1-3pm (Doors open at 12:30pm)

Where: The American Legion in 39 Main St. Ashland, NH

Sponsor: Pemi-Baker Beekeepers’ Association

Cost: No charge, donations accepted

Reyah will be bringing her therapy bees and supplies and will give you the opportunity to try some bee stings for what ails you.
She will also have some supplies and products of the hive for purchase.

Reyah says:
There is nothing new about apitherapy; the healing properties of the hive have been demonstrated time and time again since the beginning of beekeeping. There are documents in China dating well over 2000 years regarding sting therapy, and the healing benefits from other honey bee made products. Hippocrates himself utilized live and dried honeybees in his practice referring to the venom as a ‘strange and mysterious medicine.’ After all, how could something that caused such initial pain, relieve pain? Something that causes initial inflammation, be anti-inflammatory? Indeed!

“Honeybees and their perfect society, are very mysterious, which I am sure is what keeps me focused on these marvelous creatures, and the medicine chest that offers something for everybody, known as ‘The Beehive’. Conditions and diseases from A to Z can be helped and improved through the use of something in that beehive. I see this on a daily basis, having given stings to over 2000 people from around the world, and to date having received over 25,000 stings myself. For now, BEE healthy, BEE happy.”

circa. 1692 ~ All plants yield honey as you see to the Industrious Chymick Bee.

The image is a colorized version from a Dutch Woodcut, dated to 1692. On the left, a clergyman standing beside a beehive holds a honeycomb to his face while bees fly towards a rose of England and a thistle of Scotland; on the right, a scholar sits writing at a desk with books on a shelf behind him.

Lettering cut into the block: "Sic nos non nobis mellificamus apes" (so we the bees make honey, but not for ourselves) and "Omnia in libris" (everything is found in books), The cleric on the left wears Geneva bands, like those of Swiss Calvinists; he is eating a piece of honeycomb, while bees fly towards a rose of England and a thistle of Scotland; on the right, a scholar sits writing at a desk with books on a shelf behind him. Below is written, "All plants yield honey as you see to the Industrious Chymick Bee" The word Chymick is undefined, but variations of the spelling have been used in early times to mean `chemist`. In ancient beekeeping history the bee is often referred to as a chemist. The bee chemist discriminates not and gathers nectar from not only the most beautiful of flowers, but also from the hideous, -both providing nectar for the bee to turn into honey.

Stephen's suggests a date of 1706 presumably referring to the forthcoming Act of Union between England and Scotland. However, information supplied by Fabienne Gallaire (by email April 2017), allows for a redating of the print to 1692

Sic nos non nobis mellificamus apes
~ so we the bees make honey, but not for ourselves

"Omnia in libris"
~ everything is found in books
