Event Programme
OUR GUEST SPEAKER
PADDY HOLOHAN
Paddy started beekeeping about 40 years ago as a hobby, joining the Carlow Beekeepers’ Association when it reformed about 20 years ago.
The group puts on monthly lectures and runs introductory courses for people starting beekeeping. We have an apiary where we provide hands-on experience to new members. Members act as mentors to novice beekeepers until they get up to speed, as well as giving talks in schools and on World Bee Day in the Carlow Farmers’ Market.
TICKET DETAILS
While admission is FREE to this event, registration is REQUIRED.

THEME
Today is World Bee Day (20 May 2025) and our talk will focus on the development of accommodation for honey bees and associated issues.
