Title: Visiting Tasmania
Post by: max2 on April 08, 2017, 09:34:19 pm

Hi all,

we are planning a trip to Tasmania - the first visit since about 1983.

Any location/shop/site you would recommend for a beekeeper to visit?

We are probably flying into Hobart ( want to see the market) and will hire a car - interested in trees, timber, markets...BEES

Any suggestions?

thanks

   MONA in Hobart, Huon Valley, Queenstown, Strahan, Stanley, North Coast,East Coast and much more. How long will you have?
    Tassie is a great place to visit.

Thanks - any specific shops - bee related you know of?

I know the North-West fairly well ( did the PDC with Bill M in 1979)

I guess we can get away for 10 days. We have cattle and gardens..poultry and it is not easy to find reliable people to look after these things
