For thousands of years, people have been keeping honeybees. From clay pots to flow hives,
beekeeping continues to evolve. Join National Park Ranger and Beekeeper Susan Ashman as she discusses the history of beekeeping and the backyard beekeeper of today.

Native American communities in Nonotuck (now called Amherst, Pelham, Hadley, and Northampton), in the Kwinitekw (Connecticut River) Valley, were long supported by reciprocal trade and diplomacy with their Native neighbors, including Nipmuc to the east, and Abenaki to the north. Yet, the increase in colonial warfare during the late 1600s-1700s forced many Native families to relocate.

This talk by Dr. Margaret M. Bruchac, Professor Emerita of Anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania, offers insights into regional Native histories by critically revisiting colonial records, antiquarian histories, and Native memories.
This program will begin at 7:00 pm after the conclusion of the 6:30 pm 2024 Annual Meeting (all are welcome to attend)

Early in the last century, Eugene Bartlett, CEO of the Pelham Fishrod Factory, funded an annual December celebration at Pelham’s Community Hall.
