Suffolk BKA AGM with guest speaker & refreshments
Our next monthly winter talk incorporates the Suffolk BKA AGM. Each year, one of the six county BKAs is host and it's our turn this year
When: Saturday, March 21st, 2.00p.m. - 4.00p.m.
Where: Great Barton Village Hall, Elms Close, Bury St Eds, IP31 2NR
Plenty of free parking available.
We have a guest speaker - Michael Bennett, who will be discussing Nosema. This could be very beneficial to many of us, especially after our very long cold & wet winter where many colonies may have encountered issues relating to Nosema.
There will be copious refreshments available as we hope very much that there will be members from all over Suffolk who, weather willing, may have spent an enjoyable morning admiring Bury and its surroundings.
Let us know if you’ll be coming along for some tea and cake and an afternoon discussing all things bees!!
