We’ll:

  • Say hello and get to know each other (it’s our second meetup—last time was a lovely group!).

  • Share quick links to our Facebook group so you can join the conversation.

  • Highlight helpful parts of the website, including the calendar for meetings, workshops, and bees.

  • Answer questions and swap a few tips.

Pop in for a bit or stay the whole time—either way, it’s a cozy way to put faces to names and feel more connected. See you in the morning!
