Annual General Meeting of the Yarra Valley Bee Group will be held in person (only) on 18th September 2022 beginning at 2pm.
Please note that to avoid the Grand Final Weekend, we have moved our meeting to a week earlier than usual.
This will not be on the last Sunday of the month - but the week before.
Monthly Speaker - Roof Top Honey - First Spring inspection and requeening a hive.
Vanessa Kwiatkowski and Mat Lumalasi are the founders of a unique project that aims to bring bees back to our cities. Concerned by a growing sense of disconnect between food production and consumption and inspired by hundred year old practices in Europe, Vanessa and Mat have created something uniquely Melbourne in their project ‘Melbourne City Rooftop Honey’. Yet while their project is inherently local their message has a much broader reach. What they do not only seeks to address issues of sustainability, it also aims to raise awareness of the importance of bees and the various threats they face. We are lucky to have Matt join us this meeting to discuss your first inspection of Spring and requeening a hive.

Do you love your Bee Group?
Do you want it to continue?
Then we need your help!
To allow this great club of ours to continue, we need nominations for the Office Bearers for the YVBG Committee. These include President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer.
You don't need to be an experienced beekeeper to nominate for these roles. Whether you're a Newbee or an Oldie, we'll look after you!
Like any club, there is a lot going on behind the scenes. However, the more help we have, the more we can grow. Please join our friendly and focused committee so that together we can help our YVBG group thrive. Did I mention that there are only four meetings a year!
