Our recent guest speaker Annelle is a retired public servant turned beekeeper. What inspired Annelle to start her journey with bees? “I’ve always had a keen interest in beekeeping, and I love a good challenge!” she says. “I’ve always been fascinated by honeybees, and I wanted to contribute to the ecosystem while gaining a greater understanding of these important pollinators. Plus, I just love honey!” Annelle frequently speaks to groups about the importance of bees and beekeeping. We learned so much from Annelle’s talk. She also brought along “props” to illustrate her points. Bees are essential, they are being threated, learn more about the situation - her video is now posted on our Facebook.
