Fwd: Watch this doco for the full Flow story


> Hi everybody,
>
> Recently, we were featured on one of Australia's best respected documentary programs, Australian Story, which screens every Monday night on the national broadcaster, ABC-TV.
>
> That, in itself, was another chapter in the Flow story which continues to take our breath away.
>
> When it screened a couple of weeks ago, many people in Australia watched, and they got a much better sense of who we were and how all this came to be.
>
> If you want to get to know us all a bit better, you can watch it on the Australian Story website. 
>
> The filmmakers really did a fantastic job of capturing where we are at and what we're about as a company, as well as how we work together and with our team of family and friends. We're sure you'll enjoy watching Australian Story, Going With the Flow.
>
> And watch out for when we tap honey from the first proper Flow Frame for the first time. That's our favourite bit!
>
> Happy beekeeping,
>

Everyone remember that the next meeting of the Cullman Beekeepers Association is tuesday night November 10th at 6:30pm at the usual place.

Mary and Ken Swann from Cullman County Beekeepers Association will present.

Mary will present how to make Lotion Bars and Recipes using Honey.  Ken will discuss Honey Production. 


Also I noticed that Tractor Supply in Cullman is now carrying Beekeeping Supplies. I have included a link to a couple of photos of the display.
