The latest scientific knowledge and practical experience from expert speakers.2. “Bees and Queens for Everyone”It is generally accepted that locally reared queens are better suited than imports, this one-day course will go through how to raise locally adapted bees and queens using low-cost, simple methods. 3. “Early Years Beekeeping Course”To support beekeepers to enhance their skills and knowledge. Ideal for beekeepers looking for the next stage after the local theory and practical course, or for those wanting a refresh.Open to ALL beekeepers, not just BIBBA members.Full info at bibba.com/events

Following last Sunday’s apiary meeting, it was agreed that an additional apiary meeting for PBKA members will be held this Sunday 22nd September, at 2pm to continue the winterising process.

Hopefully, it won’t be as wet as the last meeting, but the jury is out on the weather forecast currently, so we will do what we can!

Hope to see you then!
