Beekeeping Announcement
The Co-op Beekeeping team is looking for two new members to join us in caring for our bees. It requires a commitment of 2-3 hours every 10 days or so. We mostly meet on weekend mornings, so often it is every other weekend. We understand if you have to miss the odd hive check/ team meetup.
If you are interested, some action is required relatively soon. Urban Bee Supplies is offering two introductory courses (Feb & March) and we would encourage you to participate in one of the courses. The co-op is willing to fund 50% of the course cost for two members, however, you will be required to provide your own transportation to and from Delta for the duration of the course.
If you are interested, please reach out to me as soon as possible. The courses do fill up and we would love for you to participate. It really is a lot of fun and very interesting.
If there is more than two members seriously interested, we will have to get together and discuss how to move forward.
