EWBA Membership Fees for 2020 are now due.
You are fully insured for your Beekeeping activities through membership and you get your monthly copy of the beekeepers’ magazine An Beachaire.
Your membership provides for attendance at all lectures free and insures you for visits to the Apiary.
People cannot attend the Apiary if they are not EWBA Members for purposes of Insurance.
We are trying a series of Mini Lectures this month.
The idea is to have some of our own members tell us about something that they have found useful and that may be of interest to other members.
It also gets us used to giving a talk to groups.
Each lecture will be approx 20 minutes and there will be time for questions.
Lecture1..A Kerry Man’s Method of Swarm Control..Anne Marie Fogarty
Lecture 2..Queen Rearing using An Incubator..James Maher
Lecture 3..Keeping Bees on a Roof in an Urban Environment..Peter Fitzgerald
