WALLA WALLA – Due to interest generated from the Washington State University Walla Walla County Extension basic beekeeping class held last fall, a beekeeping club is now being organized. The first club formation meeting will be held at 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 19, 2010 at the Walla Walla County Extension office, 328 W. Poplar.

Anyone with an interest in bees or beekeeping is welcome and encouraged to attend. You do not have to have bees to participate. All ages are welcome. For more information on this new club, contact John Fouts at the Walla Walla County Extension, 509-524-2685 or fouts@wsu.edu.
