Beeginner Beekeeping Class

Located at Wild Mountain Bees, this class will offer a whirlwind of info from hive placement to season long management. You will also receive a handout of month by month management tips specifically for our region. Classes will be taught by Sarah McKinney and are a wonderful addition to any other bee schools or classes you may have the opportunity to attend. This is a great class for first year beekeepers or people wanting to get started with bees! The price of the class is $45. Stop by the store or give us a call to register.

“As long as they can sit through the long lecture style of the class they are welcome to come. Usually 12 years and up is best but I have some beekeepers that are 7-8 yrs old but they are very mature for their age”

Free Bottle Feeding Support Group

The decision for how to feed our babies is not taken or made lightly. Spend time with others who have gone through similar struggles in coming to the conclusion that: “Fed is best.”

We will share stories, explore, and support each other with:
· Feeding techniques
· Finding the right bottle/nipple (size, level, shape, etc) with The
Mothership’s Bottle Library
· Finding the right formula (we’ll have samples!)
· Pumping techniques, schedules, tips, etc.
· Grieving the breastfeeding relationship
· How to handle judgments
· How to wean – either onto formula or off the bottle entirely
· …and much more!

This FREE group is for those who, for whatever reason, only feed their babies with a bottle. Formula moms/dads, pumping moms, pumping moms who supplement – all are welcome!

Meets the 3rd Saturday of the month at 10am at The Mothership. Babies, pumps, and bottles can all come, too! (The 3/18 meeting will be at noon instead of 10am)

About the host, Lauren K. Kaufmann, LPC: Lauren had insufficient glandular tissue (IGT) and a baby who just did not want to breastfeed. She saw lactation consultants, pumped for 3 months, supplemented with formula starting in the hospital, tried “all the supplements,” and even had an adverse reaction to Reglan. Lauren gets that fed is best, and that it is hard, and she wants you to know that there is support out there for bottle-feeders!

65-Story Treehouse with Andy Griffiths

Acclaimed children’s author Andy Griffiths is flying all the way from Australia to Asheville to spread the joy of reading. And boy will his arms be tired!

Griffiths will appear at Spellbound Children’s Bookshop, 640 Merrimon Avenue, Suite 204 on Sunday, April 9 at 3:00 pm. Join him for an enchanting Q&A session about his 13-Story Treehouse book series, the latest addition to his works, and stories about his life as an author.

Andy will also help unveil a special Treehouse-themed Little Free Library, constructed by local wood artist Brian Monteleone of Artful Pallet. After the unveiling, the treehouse library will be filled with free children’s books and donated to Hall Fletcher Elementary to live on their grounds.

The fifth book in the illustrated middle-grade series is filled with Andy and illustrator Terry Denton’s signature slapstick humor. Your kids probably know the Treehouse books. And if they like funny books like Diary of A Wimpy Kid with lots of wild imaginative illustrations, they will definitely love these books.

Andy and Terry live in a tree. And when we say “tree,” we mean “treehouse.” And when we say “treehouse,” we don’t mean just any old treehouse—we mean the most amazing treehouse in the world! It’s filled with things like shark-infested see-through swimming pools, secret underground labs, and marshmallow machines that follow you around and automatically shoot marshmallows into your mouth whenever you’re hungry.
Oh, and there’s a time machine…which is going to be really, really useful now, since Terry messed up (again) and the treehouse just FAILED its safety inspection. Join Andy and Terry on a whirlwind trip through time as they try to stop the treehouse from being demolished!

No purchase is necessary to attend the event, but purchase of at least one of Andy’s Treehouse books from Spellbound is required to get in the signing line. All Treehousepurchases will benefit the POP Project, a local nonprofit that distributes free books where there are needs.

Come hang out with Andy in his 65-Story Treehouse and see a real, locally-constructed treehouse filled with books. Join us at Spellbound for a fun and wacky presentation that may just include Andy leading us in balloon orchestra renditions of his favorite songs. (Balloons provided free of charge.)
