What's On At The Woopi Bee Shed

Want to learn more about Bees?  We run a series of informative and fun sessions at the Woopi Bee Shed in Woolgoolga, NSW. 
 We focus on beekeeping basics, honey harvesting, native bees, bee art, candle making and a range of other bee related topics

<h2>DIY Candle Making Session</h2><p>T﻿his session is for people who know how to cast candles and have their own moulds, but lack the space, equipment or inclination to melt the beeswax.  We will have our large AUWAX Melter running filled to the brim with gorgeous melted beeswax, and we'll also provide pouring jugs and casting tables.  All you need to do is turn up with your moulds and wicks and pour.   While you are waiting for your candles to set, you are welcome to leave them with us and return later in the afternoon to pick them up, or sit around and have a cup of tea or coffee with other participants, or use the time to make some rolled beeswax candles at our work bench.   </p><h2>Cost</h2><p>T﻿he $10 event fee  reserves your place, and covers tea and coffee.  In addition you will be charged for any wax you use based on the weight of your candles (at a rate of $45.00 per kilo inc. GST).  </p><p>Additional moulds and wick can be purchased on the day, or prior to the event. </p><h3>What you can expect</h3><p>This session is run in the gardens at the Woopi Bee Shed, in a covered outdoor space.  The aim is to be creative in a relaxed outdoor setting.  Participants are advised to wear flat covered shoes and clothes that can get messy.  </p><h3>Group size</h3><p>We keep the group size small for these sessions to enable maximum access to equipment.   </p>

<h3>Catering</h3><p>Tea and coffee will be provided.  </p><h3>Parking</h3><p>There is plenty of street parking available at this time of day in Hawke Drive.</p><h3>Questions?</h3><p>Feel free to call us, or call in to the Woopi Bee Shed if you have any questions.  </p><h3>WARNING</h3><p>European honey bees are present on site.
