The next Kitchen Gardeners’ Society meet is coming up and it’s all about bees.
Once again it’s at Steve and Elizabeth’s house, Marmalade Cottage (RSVP for address).
Sunday 5 August
1.30 – 4pm
Bees are an essential part of the productive garden – they pollinate for fruit production, and if you have a hive, give you honey. Without them, life on earth starves.
As well as learning about bees and keeping them, we’ll have the sharing table – if you have something from your garden or kitchen you’d like to share, please bring it along, and take home something from someone else’s garden.
After the bee presentation, we’ll have afternoon tea. If you’d like to bring something along yummy, please do. Perhaps with a honey theme?
There isn’t a great deal of shelter in the backyard, so if it’s wet, bring your umbrella. It isn’t a terribly kid-friendly place (there’s poo and rusty metal) so you’ll need to keep a close eye on any little ones.
Please email guildfordkitchengardeners@gmail.com to RSVP.
