Bee Keeping Courses
Sun, 08/01/2012 - 15:35 | by bazaljettBookings are now open for the training courses mentioned in the latest BeeHolder.
The courses will take place at Gregynog Hall, Tregynon (except the Microscopy course, which will be at Plas Dolerw)
Our committee decision has been to subsidise these courses and we have kept the cost the same as previous years. The costs include all materials and tea, coffee and biscuits. Bring your own lunch or eat in the very good cafe at Gregynog.

The guest speaker will be Wally Shaw*, who will give a talk entitled "The bees know what they are doing, but does the beekeeper?". Those of you who have seen Wally speak in the past will know that this will be worth hearing. It will also be interesting to find out how his varroa control experimentation is progressing.
