Our local bee club, the Metro Atlanta Beekeepers Club, offers its short course on Saturday January 21 from 8 - 4:30. We have an agenda that is filled with experienced, well-qualified speakers and the course is second to none in Georgia. Some of our speakers include Jennifer Berry, Keith Fielder, Curtis Gentry (and even me!) To see earlier posts about previous short courses, click here, here, here, here, here.

There's a continental breakfast beginning at 8 and the speakers begin at 9. We provide a delicious lunch for participants as well with the opportunity to sit at a table with an experienced beekeeper and talk about getting started.
Participants go home at the end of the day with enough knowledge to get started, with a list of places to order bees and best of all, with an incredible "Goody Bag" filled with beekeeping catalogs, honey, a candle, lip balm, and best of all, their own copy of Keith Delaplane's great basic book of beekeeping: First Lessons in Beekeeping.
We have had participants come from as far away as Mississippi - it's an informative, enthusiasm-generating, all-around-great course. If you can come, you won't regret it.

Jennifer Berry just got added to the list of speakers for our club's Short Course (Eastern MO Beekeepers) as well. She is a great speaker, and can't wait to see the presentation.
ReplyDeleteI think these courses are a great time, and I always learn something new!
