Another interesting workshop offered through Debbie Roos & Chatham
Cooperative Extension. The folks from Carolina Bee Co. who spoke at our
June meeting have this certification.   Note: I could not get the link
in her email to work, so here's one that did:

  The Chatham County Center of North Carolina Cooperative Extension will
offer a Natural Beekeeping workshop as part of its *Enhancing
Sustainability Series* on Saturday, January 28, 2012 from 10:00 am-4:30 pm
in the auditorium of the Agriculture Building in Pittsboro. ****

This course is intended for beekeepers who want to learn more about how to
manage their hives naturally. The national Certified Naturally Grown (CNG)
organization recently developed a Natural Beekeeping (Apiculture) Standard.
The primary focus of Natural Beekeeping is the health of the honey bees and
the sustainability of beekeeping.****

Beekeepers may choose to have their apiary Certified Naturally Grown to
show their commitment to natural beekeeping. Whether or not you are
interested in becoming a CNG-certified beekeeper, the workshop will be
helpful if you are interested in learning more about natural beekeeping
methods. ****

Master Beekeeper Dr. Buddy Marterre, lead author of the Certified Naturally
Grown Apiculture Standard, will be the instructor for this workshop. ****

Participants will receive Certified Naturally Grown's *Handbook for Natural
Beekeeping*.****

*Note: This is NOT an introductory beekeeping workshop. The instructor will
assume participants have at least some basic knowledge of beekeeping.*****

Details about this workshop are on Cooperative Extension’s Growing Small
Farms website at http://bit.ly/qb7UB****

The deadline for registration is January 24!****

Happy New Year,****

Debbie****
