Local Beekeeper presents program at Ranger Lions Club

Local Beekeeper presents program at Ranger Lions Club

Lance Hawvermale, known to most through his position at Ranger College as Dean of Humanities and Fine Arts - and as a successful book author surprised some at Ranger Lions Club recently with his talk about the ins and outs, joys and hazards of being a beekeeper. Invited to give the program by Lion Dean Mason, Hawvermale proved to be an enthusiastic beekeeper and provided fascinating insights into the lives of bees and production of honey. He reminded that around 1/3 of our food is available because of pollination. “Essentially, when the bees go away, we could go away,” he said. A combination of circumstances are harming the bee population, he added, including a lack of rain, lack of forage, use of pesticides and change of climate. 02/16/2023 12:00 AM
