Brilliant Bees

Buzz on over to Newtongrange Community Garden for a bee-rilliant adventure! Join our resident bee-whisperer, Wullie, as he spills the sweet secrets of honey bees. Ever wondered what the buzz is all about? Now’s your chance to find out—no prior bee experience required (but a love of honey is a bonus).

Bring the whole hive (aka your family) for a morning of fun, facts, and maybe even a little dress-up. If you’re feeling brave, you can suit up like a real beekeeper and peek inside the hives—don’t worry, Wullie’s got your back (and your stinger-proof suit). Whether you’re a curious kid or a grown-up with a soft spot for pollinators, this is one garden gathering you won’t want to miss!

The event is “pay what you want,” so you can save your pennies for extra honey sandwiches. Just remember: you must register to join the hive!
