Sunday July 28th marked a new step forward in the development of the Pembrokeshire Beekeeping Centre when Apiary Manager Paul Eades and volunteer John Dudman extracted the first honey in the Honey Kitchen.
All systems worked as planned and any minor glitches, such as a blown fuse in the uncapping tray, were quickly identified and dealt with.
The new Honey Kitchen exhibition at the ‘Pembrokeshire Beekeeping Centre’, will be opening on Monday 22nd July at Scolton Manor Museum, near Haverfordwest, to coincide with National Countryside Week!
This, together with the ‘Pine Tree Apiary’, will form part of the new centre, which opened for the first time in 2012. It is hoped that all PBKA members, as well as the public, will visit this exciting new development and take advantage of the training opportunities which will be developed over the coming months and years!
The new ‘Pembrokeshire Beekeeping Centre’ at Scolton Manor, near Haverfordwest, will be featured in an interview with Paul Eades, the PBKA Secretary and Apiary Manager this Sunday, 21st July on Pembrokeshire Radio’s Farming Show, to promote National Countryside week which commences on Monday 22nd July.
The show starts at 8.00am with the interview scheduled to be broadcast between 8.30am and 8.45am!
We hope you listen in!
