Late June was the Redcliffe Show at which the Northside Beekeepers Association played host at the honey court.

Heaps of members turned up to lend a hand and talk to the public all about bees.
It was one year ago that I attended my first ever Bee club meeting, and I vividly recall the excitement as members received their prizes from the 2015 Redcliffe Show.
So I was excited to be one of those lucky people last night receiving my first prize in the Novice category.
Even more exciting was that the honey was from a single Flow Hive frame from Madonna’s hive. I think that’s a first!
