The beekeeping conference takes place on Saturday 14 November in the upper hall of the Museo Ex Meucci, at via della Posta Vecchia 3 in Mercatale di Vernio. The proceedings begin at 9.30 with institutional greetings and address the theme 'L'estate più calda e le strategie di adattamento': the talks by CNR-IBE and Arpat cover temperature records and possible countermeasures in the apiary. At 12 the award ceremony for the 'Il miele più buono della Val di Bisenzio' competition is scheduled, which compares the beekeepers of the valley and the honeys produced on the slopes of the Bisenzio. In the afternoon the day continues in the council chamber of the Palazzo comunale with a guided tasting of the honeys entered in the competition, led by an expert in sensory analysis, with tastings of local specialities offered by the producers. To take part, booking is required via the Visit Val di Bisenzio portal. The initiative is organised by the Comune di Vernio.
