Bee School is back for Kairos residents!

Join Kairos bee guru Mick Coen for his Basic Introduction to Beekeeping workshops from Wednesday 29th November.

Workshops will consider all things bee-based, from the evolution of bees and queens to how to best look after them, before getting stuck in with the hands-on practical.  You don’t need any knowledge or previous experience, just be interested. We’ll explore and learn together!

Contact Grace Madden on bees@kairoscommunity.org.uk to sign up or find out more.  It’s buzzing with activity at Bee HQ and the team are always excited to welcome new enthusiasts into the hive!
