St. Patrick’s Day Sneem

We were delighted to participate in the Sneem St. Patrick’s day parade this year. We couldn’t believe the crowds that gathered from far and wide for the festival. Some guessed the numbers were doubled from last year.

Our theme was ‘Beekeeping is BIG in Sneem’. This was chosen for several reasons: our membership numbers are way up this year and our training course for 2024 is full. It’s really great to see so many take an interest in our little pollinators. It’s also wonderful for our community to have such a diverse membership and energy.

So how do you illustrate that theme? Well, you construct a giant beehive buzzing with happy bees and flowers….
