BEEKEEPING for Beginners
Taranaki Beekeepers Club is starting their Beekeeping For Beginners Course at 7pm on Monday 5th August at the West Baptist Church, 144 South Rd, (between Spotswood Service Station and Ngamotu Rd).
The course is on the first Monday of each month for five months and is backed up with fortnightly, hands on, field days at the Club Apiary.
No charge for the first two nights with the expectation that you will join the club, ($30 per membership) to continue.
This course is aimed at the complete novice and covers topics such as equipment selection and sourcing, how to get stock, compliance, bee husbandry and hive management.
If you have questions that cannot wait until Monday then please call Chris on 027 444 8200.

Certified copies of documents
Sometimes you need a certified copy of a document. This means that an authorised person signs the document to confirm that it is a true copy of the original.
This is one of the services provided by a Justice of the Peace (JP). There is a JP in attendance at our New Plymouth office on Monday mornings.
This service is free, and no appointment is necessary.
If Monday mornings don't suit, check with us about when a JP is available at other locations.
