Monthly throughout the winter, beginners classes are held when enquirers or persons interested demand the need; you are welcome to attend and learn something about the lore of bees and beekeeping. You have the opportunity to make new friends, borrow books from our library and learn about a fascinating hobby that the whole family can share. The benefits of coming to the meetings is listening to experienced beekeepers of your locality, their stories and their advice. The talks last about an hour and a cup of tea afterwards with warm hospitality. Also we have a library where you can borrow books for free - tapes and CD's can be borrowed for a deposit, returnable when you bring them back.

David Shand has kindly sent me a few photos of the April 2008 stand at the Dundee Spring Flower Show. This one shows well the honey, wax and hive.

Other events are Forfar Flower Show and Exhibition in the Reid Hall, Forfar 29 and 30 August.
