Burgh Bees announce: "Are You Bee-Curious?" Informational Sessions

Slow Food Pittsburgh is happy to pass along this great offer from our friends at Burgh Bees:

Join four of the founders of Burgh Bees--Meredith Grelli, Alex Grelli, Robert Steffes and Jennifer Wood--for an evening exploring the amazing craft of beekeeping.

These sessions are designed to answer your questions about beekeeping and to help you decide if you want to participate in the full-year beekeeping training.

We recommend you attend a "Bee Curious?" session if you haven't been to visit an apiary and want to learn more about what it takes to become a beekeeper.

Registration forms for the 2009 year-long Beekeeping Training will be available at the "Bee Curious?" sessions. "Bee-Curious?" sessions are free and open to the public; there's no need to register.

These programs are funded in part with a generous grant from The Sprout Fund: www.sproutfund.org Thanks, Sprout Fund!

The cost for full-year training --for the whole shebang--is $50. For a complete schedule and a registration form, please email burghbees@gmail.com.
