Event Description

You are invited to attend a gathering to learn more about backyard beekeeping on Saturday Oct 2nd at our home (near Main and 19th), at 1pm. Last year we became beekeepers, and I am excited to tell you about our wonderful experiences. Also, valuable beekeeping information will be given by Master beekeeper Brain Campbell with Blessed Bee farms http://blessedbeeapiary.tumblr.com/ Weather permitting we will open up a beehive so that you can get a closer look. (We also have an observation hive which will allow us to see the bees through glass.)

A beekeeping support/learning group now exists in our neighbouhood! We have found that it is very valuable to get to know beekeepers living close by, as there are times when we need assistance and advice. You are welcome to join the VV beekeeping group (for beekeepers and people who are interested in becoming beekeepers). Please let me know if you can make it as space is limited, or contact me for further details anyachase@yahoo.ca (*this gathering is also great for kids and it’s free!)
I hope you can make it! Anna
