The association Centenary Celebration Dinner was held at the Garden Cafe at Traquair House on Friday 15th November 2019.

The occasion was held to mark 100 years since the founding of the Peeblesshire Beekeepers Association in July 1919.

Eighteen Peeblesshire beekeepers and partners enjoyed the lovely food provided by our host and fellow beekeeper Mary Shields.

Peter Stevenson the association treasurer made a short speech touching on the history of the association and the fellowship that comes from being part of a group of people who have a shared interest.

The evening was thoroughly enjoyed by all and was a fitting way to end the centenary year.

Many thanks to the secretary, Mandy Clydesdale, and our host Mary for organising such a successful event.
