We are really lucky to have Tamsin and Carrie, themselves experts in producing beautiful hive products, to come along and share their expertise. And with them Mark Stevens, who will talk about his experience as a relatively new beekeeper winning a prize for his wax at the National Honey show last autumn .
So please come along to find out the Art of the Possible, be inspired, and give it a go.
Plenty of good bee chat … and of course a cuppa and cake …
