Cassowary Coast NBA participated in the Feast of the Senses this year along the river but due to the torrential downpour we couldn’t see any of it and it did rain the whole event and that started a 1300 mm rain event (or so) for three weeks straight.

The Sarsaparilla flowering was great as was the Golden Penda this autumn if it were not for the rain.
Peter Robertson has completed his first solo sapiens transfer. Jordan Ortt the secretary and Neil Fraser the chair attended the Gordonvale, Holloway’s Beach and the Mission Beach markets to promote ANBA membership and sell stingless bee products.

We are hoping for a promotional visit to the FNQ by a ANBA rep. soon (late July) and a project to make a flower farm has begun with the renovation of a neglected block in Martyville near Innisfail.
