08 August 2024Feil Maree - Dingwall High Street Saturday 7th September
Feil Maree - a community event in Dingwall on Saturday 7th September from 11 till 4pm.
It will be something along the same lines as the Black Isle Show, smaller and without live bees. An opportunity to talk to the public about bees, pollinators and the work of the Association. If you want to help out, even if it's only for a short time, let me know. Anyone got a gazebo I could borrow for the day??
Back in 2008 this was how we used to do it in the garden/courtyard of the Museum
