Promoting Beekeeping

Post by **Wally** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 11:56 am

Kurt and I have been in contact with the Guilford county corrections dept. concerning placing bees on the county prison farm to teach inmates beekeeping. I expect to meet with the head of the farm next week to begin setting up the course. If anyone would like to volunteer to help with the project, you are more than welcome. I would think it would serve as community service time toward obtaining your journeyman or master beek certification. In any event, I think it will be fun and educational for all involved, while giving the inmates something to look forward to after their release.You can contact me through the forum or at the monthly meeting if you want to help.

Thanks
Wally

Wow!
I have to give all the credit to Wally! He has really taken this task to heart and hopefully we will see the fruit of his labor soon.
Thanks Wally!
