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: http://chatham.ces.ncsu.edu/growingsmallfarms/NaturalBeekeepingWorkshopRegistrationForm.pdf

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
