Next Apiary Training Session – Sunday 3rd May at 2pm!

Just to advise PBKA members that the next apiary meeting of the season is on Sunday 3rd May 2026 at the Woodland Apiary, Scolton Manor commencing at 2pm promptly.

BEGINNERS – Beginners (especially those who attended the Beginners’ Beekeeping Course), are welcome to attend! Please ensure you bring a bee suit (if you have one), sturdy footwear covering your ankles (i.e not Crocs!!), and suitable gloves, such as rubber Marigolds (e.g. not woollen gloves!)

If you do not have a bee suit (typically beginners/new members), then please advise us in good time if you can, as we have a limited number of bee suits available, which we can loan you for the session. N.B. You will need to bring your own boots and gloves as above however. It would be helpful if those people requiring a bee suit could arrive before 2pm in order to save time.
