&lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" style="font-size: 20px;"&gt;For the last 30 plus years beekeepers have been waging war on the European honey bee’s ultimate enemy the Varroa destructor mite.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt; After the initial sweep of this devastating pest, it was estimated that only around 10% of American honeybee colonies survived.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt; Since then, the primary mode of addressing Varroa mites has been through chemical interventions. &lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;The idea of focusing on honeybee genetics that showed Varroa resistance without chemical intervention was faced with harsh criticism…until now.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" style="font-size: 20px;"&gt;Through the investigative studies of dedicated bee researchers, we have the scientific evidence to validate the premise of Varroa resistant genetics in the European honeybee.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt; Come join us as we take the first steps in learning about these genetics and the evidence-based science behind them, how to transition and implement these practices in your apiary, what it would look like to develop locally adapted Varroa resistant queens, and how and why commercial beekeepers can and should focus on Varroa resistant genetics in their commercial apiary.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" style="font-size: 20px;"&gt;All are welcome.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt; We hope to see your there.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
