We are pleased to report that Pembrokeshire Beekeepers’ Association now has 200 members, a significant milestone and a demonstration of how interest in beekeeping continues to grow in Pembrokeshire.

We would like to welcome all new members to the association and also to thank those existing members who continue to maintain their membership with the PBKA year after year.

The new training apiary has started very well this season and we hope to keep progressing as an association with further improvements.

It is encouraging to see our association going from strength to strength and on behalf of the Committee, I would like to thank you all for your support and to wish you well with your beekeeping!

Very best regards

Paul Eades

A brand new booklet to planting for pollinators has been released and it is brimful of great ideas and top tips.

Botanic Garden’s science team has provided expert advice for a booklet detailing some of the top plants for pollinators to guide growers on what to plant throughout the year.

There are also tips on grass cutting, containers, growing from seed, from cuttings, and advice on making new plants using techniques such as layering and division.
