Bee-Keeping evening

The next Slow Food event will take place on March 11th in An Cruibin. Eddie O'Sullivan is keeping bees for years and in a good year produces up to 1,000 lbs of his delicious honey. His bees forage on nearby sycamore and chestnut trees which gives his honey an amber colour and a more pronounced flavour.

Eddie will talk about his start as a bee keeper and the joy and challenges of producing his own honey. We will have honey to taste and you will be able to blind taste some artisan honey compared to shop bought one. You will be able to take home some recipes based on honey and learn about Irish bees. And of course, we won't let you go home hungry.

Please email Cork City Slow Food ( ccslowfood@gmail.com ) if you like to attend. Places are limited, so booking is essential. Entry €10 -15.

Hope to see you all there
