Simply Living Social - Good Green Fun
Everything you want to know about bees, including the delicious honey wine that is made right on the premises at Brothers Drake Meadery! Entrepreneur Oron Benary will guide us through the sweet joy of discovering mead. At this Columbus hot spot, “local” is not just a buzzword - local honey, local blueberries, local art on the walls, and soon we'll be pouring from local bottles. PLUS, Barry & Carmen Conrad of Conrad Hive and Honey (www.hiveandhoney.com) will be our local experts for BOTH the Social at Brothers Drake and Simply Living's next Film Night on 2/29 where we'll screen Vanishing of the Bees. The Conrads were just named "Beekeepers of the Year" at the recent convention in Las Vegas! Simply Living Social gathers for "good green fun" every 2nd Friday. The venue changes but we meet and mix starting at 6:30 pm. It's free!
We meet the 2nd Friday of every month. The venue changes but we meet and mix starting at 6:30 pm, do a check-in around 7, offer a brief program with Q&A and we include plenty of time to network and find out what others are up to and excited about. Light refreshments will be served.
Please help us spread the word! Bring your Friends and your Honey!

Little bee. Big Story. Honeybees have been mysteriously disappearing across the planet, literally vanishing from their hives. Known as Colony Collapse Disorder, this phenomenon has brought beekeepers to crisis. Commercial honeybee operations pollinate crops that make up one out of every three bites of food on our tables. of the Bees, narrated by Ellen Page as they strive to keep their bees healthy and fulfill pollination contracts. The 90-minute film will be followed by a discussion led by local experts Barry & Carmen Conrad, (www.hiveandhoney.com), who were recently named "Beekeepers of the Year”. And for a different dimension, Ken Harsh, a nationally respected metaphysician, will add the meta perspective on the bees’ importance.
