Beekeeping for Beginners
Did you miss this opportunity??? It is not toooo late. Contact Chris for details on when/where this first night is being repeated but don't delay as it is on the 19th.
Hi Everyone. The Taranaki Beekeepers Beginners Course starts next Monday, 4th August, at the West Baptist Church Hall at 144 South Rd New Plymouth. Start time is 7pm.
This course, and associated opportunities for hands on working with bees, will give you a good knowledge of how to manage and keep bees.
The course is free with the expectation that you will join the Bee Club, $20 membership per year.
The course is approximately two hours on the first Monday evening of each month from now until Christmas; and we also provide practical handling/ demonstration of bees approximately twice a month on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. This is your opportunity to get up close and personal with these amazing insects.
For any further information feel free to call Chris on 027 444 8200.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
