Whilst the medicinal properties of honey have been touted for millennia, there is now increasing scientific evidence for its usage in all sorts of medical conditions. From protective effects against oesophageal perforation in children who mischievously swallow button batteries to treating leg ulcers, come and listen to a fun and entertaining illustrated podcast of why every household and hospital should be stocked up with honey, especially in the winter months!

Our Club has also been supporting the development of beekeeping and honey production in the jungles of a remote village in the Democratic Republic of Congo.  A short documentary of how Pygmies have been introduced to modern, sustainable beekeeping methods with the support of the Sydney Bee Club has been made and will be played during this meeting – bring popcorn!
