Club meetings are held monthly from January to November. Our meetings are fun, friendly, interactive and educational. We strive to have a variety of speakers, talking on various related subjects. Meetings are open for anyone to come along and check us out, and are followed by supper and a chance to talk with friends, and make new ones. Learn More

Honeybees natural survival instinct sometimes causes them to swarm - most commonly because their current colony is overcrowded. Swarming bees may be intimidating, but they are unlikely to sting when swarming. Please don't disturb or try to kill a swarm - call a beekeeper to come and collect them. Learn More

Both classroom and hands-on sessions are included. Learn More
