Meet Our New Provincial Apiarist
Going into 2023 Manitoba has a new Provincial Apiarist! Congratulations and thanks to Rheal Lafreniere for serving the province during his tenure in this role, it's important work that greatly benefits producers and those who enjoy our fine Manitoban honey. We look forward to working with Derek Micholson the new Provincial Apiarist, and wish him tremendous success during his term!
