Coal River Apiaries and Meriki's Home Made, would like to thank everyone who came along and supported us by purchasing our products over the weekend at the Heritage & Bullock Festival Oatlands. Loved and appreciated all the comments and conversation over the last 2 days, letting us know how you love to support our small local business, how you come looking for our stall at the festival, how you often call into our Honesty shed, seeing the smiles on the children's faces, and plenty of the adults faces also when they find the marked Queen Bee in the Observation Hive, recognising that we have got some new products, but the best comment is when I constantly hear how great it is to be able to get some real honey.........Thankyou and see you all again next year....
