Keeping Bees - Monday 20th February
Just a reminder of our first exciting talk of the year and the date of our plant sale. Karen Ford and Becki Gibbs from Dorking Bee Keepers will talk to us about how they got into beekeeping, Reigate Beekeeping Club, the beekeeping year, pollination and harvesting the honey. They will also show a few short video clips of inside the hive and collecting a swarm, and they'll bring along an empty hive to take apart and show everyone. The evening will finish with a honey tasting session quiz (with a prize!). Please note that due to the increasing interest in our talks, we have moved the venue to Brockham Village Hall. This is to ensure there is seating for everyone. As usual, all of our talks start at 7:30 pm. Refreshments will be served and everyone is welcome, so please bring friends. Members £3 and non-members £5. Plant Sale - Saturday 20th May, 10 am – 12 pm, on Brockham Green We are planning ahead, as all gardener's must do, and thinking about our next plant sale which will be held, as usual, in May. Last year there were certainly some interesting plants on offer and so we hope that you will be able to support us again by sowing a few extra seeds, dividing some plants, and taking extra cuttings, ready for the day. We will also welcome donations of books, puzzles, crafts and garden equipment or ornaments that you no longer need. ~Ruth and Paul, Membership Secretaries
