The bees!

Local bee-whisperer Camilla Goddard will be running a bee-keeping for beginners class on May 6th at St Peter's Church, the grounds of which are home to an apiary. The organisers explain:

"This hands-on taster session will include crucial beekeeping theory before checking out some real hives. Beesuits are provided, but bring boots or covered shoes. If you're thinking of getting your own hive, or want to make a practical difference to the plight of the honeybee, here's your chance to get up close and personal (not too personal) with everyone's favourite insect."
