Jerry Hayes, Assistant Chief, Bureau of Plant and Apiary Inspection, 

Division of Plant Industry, Florida Department of Agriculture, Gainesville, Florida:

This is the time of year when almond bloom is about to take place and hundreds of thousands of colonies are brought in to pollinate that crop. The reports that I have gotten from beekeepers is that about 30% of the healthy colonies that have gone to California - for this 2010 almond pollination to fulfill pollination contracts - have died in two or three weeks.

FEEDING TIME Fall Honey flow was weak so it's time to fatten the Honey Bee's up for winter ALWAYS start early to make beehives heavy if not leaving honey. The extra stores also act as insulation and are ready for spring build up time.

FEEDING TIME Fall Honey flow was weak so it's time to fatten the Bee's up for winter

This Video will give a few idea's for sugar water mixing on hobbyist size scale

DON'T let your bees starve, FEED BEFORE cold weather comes

The bees won't break the cluster if extreme cold so feed now.
Extra feed acts as insulation to preserve hive warmth.

HONEY as alternative medicine for cancer,medical problems

Dr. Jack Tidwell discusses honey therapy for cancer patients


The Tidwell Cancer Treatment Center is known for being on the cutting edge of technology when it comes to combating cancer.
Trained at the renowned M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas, Dr. Jack Tidwell was the first physician in the region to offer dynamic arc-modulated radiation therapy that allows him to maximize the treatment of cancer while minimizing the effect on surrounding tissue and organs.

 But Dr. Tidwell is also open to other ideas in researching ways fight cancer. One such treatment, according to his wife, Eve, is the use of honey to attack cancer cells.

 Dr. Tidwell and Eve will talk about this at the Nov. 9 meeting of the Chattahoochee Valley Beekeepers Association.

 Dr. Tidwell has been practicing medicine for 25 years, training under Dr. Gilbert Fletcher, the �Father of Radiology.�
 He graduated from the University of Georgia with a bachelors of science in Mathematics and Chemistry. He earned his medical degree from the Medical College of Georgia and interned at Fitzimmons General Hospital in Denver.
