It's a picnic.   We have the pavilion reserved for the entire day.   The Alabama Beekeepers Association will provide the meat, which will be BBQ this year, as well drinks and paper products.   Everyone that comes should bring a large covered dish of your choice of the following; baked beans, potato salad, cole slaw, salad, potato chips, tomatoes, vegetable, or desserts.   Call Bonnie Funderburg at 205-625-3464 or email at  funder@otelco.net to coordinate what you wish to bring so we don't have too much on one item.

Fred Rossman (Rossman Apiaries) and Earl King (Waler T. Kelley) will be there and other suppliers may also attend.    Place your orders with Fred and/or Earl and specify pickup at the ABA picnic in Cullman, May 18.    That will save your shipping charges and remember that cypress is pretty much the best wood for beehives and Rossman Apiaries is one of if not the only supplier in this area that sells cypress.    Both Fred and Earl have rather large trailers but they are often filled long before the picnic so, get your orders in early to assure delivery of your items.

Other suppliers may make the picnic.  Please check back here as the picnic date nears to see if other suppliers will be there as well as to catch the latest picnic development.
