For the 18th time, the owners of the Beekeeping Farm - Anna and Janusz Kasztelewicz - have the pleasure of inviting everyone, craving for unforgettable moments, to join them at the annual Biesiada at Bartnik which will take place on 4th and 5th of July. This exceptional revelry would provide a lot of fun not only for experienced beekeeper but also for anyone appreciating the noble taste of honey.

The first day of Biesiada will begin with the conference concerning the topic "Innovation in agriculture and quality of bee products". After the conference,  merrymaking will officially start and at the end of the evening a unique show of light and sound could be admired. The other day of Biesiada will be no less entertaining. The official inauguration will be held followed by another generous portion of feasting. It will be also an opportunity to watch numerous artistic performances of the invited guests.

Of course, it is not all that this year Biesiada offers.

Honey Larder shop will tempt everyone with its range of honey, meads, cosmetics based on bee products and sweets for children.
Various stalls will present the art of making artistic and folk handicraft. There will be also a place to eat and place to sell beeswax and propolis.

Everyone will be welcomed to visit the Beekeeping  Museum, where the works of the recent photo and caricature contests will be displayed.
The exhibition of the photographs taken by Adam Nowak and Jamusz Łopucki will also be available to be seen along with the collection of historic vehicles of Józef Gócwa. The absolute blockbuster will be the premiere of the unique literary trilogy "Slowa miodem pisane"  (Words with honey written) by Jerzy Gnerewicz.
