32 people completed our Introduction to Beekeeping Course on 03/04/19. The buzz was great and we had a very enthusiastic group who interacted and had lots of questions. There were lectures by John Cunningham and Bea Flavin and we had practical demonstrations each night from Pat Crowley and on the last night with Willy O’Brien and Mary Madigan.
All participants received a certificate of attendance. These certificates can be beneficial to people who want to go on and buy bees as a good beekeeper will want to know that those buying bees have an understanding of what beekeeping is all about.
The next steps are Apiary Demonstrations for the practical aspects of beekeeping and participants will be notified as it is weather dependent.
