EBKA EVENTS
website design software

We have two events diaries, one for the dormant winter months and the other for the more active summer months.

Summer meetings are organised to be ‘hands-on’ practicals and are held at one of the EBKA apiaries, every week, normally on  Saturday afternoons. We also sometimes have additional garden meetings at a member’s apiary.

Winter meetings are held in the spacious Arlington Village Hall, where there is ample parking. These are held once a month, normally on the third Tuesday evening of the month.

All our meetings are aimed at being informative and useful, whatever your knowledge, but in a friendly and informal manner. In addition to our normal meetings we sometimes have special interest meetings.

A taster of past meeting subjects is given below. Full events details are supplied on membership.
