 rn Honey Bee (Apis Melifera) has\, since its introduction by Colonial sett
 lers\, played a vital part in our country&rsquo\;s agriculture. The honey 
 bee is key in the pollination of fruits\, vegetables and other flowering p
 lants. Pollination services are provided by commercial beekeepers who brin
 g their bees to large-scale growers.</p>\n<p>Throughout history\, honey be
 es have been a part of the home garden\, with a hive or two providing poll
 ination and producing honey. The popularity of backyard beekeeping grew si
 gnificantly with the recognition of Colony Collapse Disorder in 2007 and h
 as continued to rise in popularity.</p>\n<p>Experienced local beekeepers A
 dele and Lucy\, members of the team that developed the Beginner Beekeeping
  Course for the Raritan Valley Beekeepers Association\, will present an in
 troduction to backyard beekeeping\, including the New Jersey Beekeeping Re
