mallt | Bees & Seeds

I'm hoping to go to Bees & Seeds on Sunday (having a little trouble with the registration page).

"Its a chance to learn about Permaculture and Beekeeping, and also get some hands on experience. The Bownesian Permaculture Project is in its 2nd summer and is now home of the Canamo Hempcrete project, an earthen-building going up this week made from Lime and Hemp! What a great place to come and learn about alternatives to the norm next Sunday!"

They are also planning on opening up a hive so that we can see the hive structure... this is the main reason I'm going... the main stumbling block in the whole "I'd like to keep bees" plan is that I don't know if I can handle being that close to that many bees! I figure this might help me find that out. No point in spending money on a beekeeping course, hive, protective clothing until I know I can handle it!

I'm also hoping it'll give me some ideas for planting my garden once I get to the new place :)

& yes I will be wearing my Eddie Izzard "Covered In Bees!" t-shirt!
