Apiary inspections
During the active beekeeping season we hold weekly or fortnightly inspections of the apiary hives, which all members are welcome to attend. Inspections are held on Saturdays at 12:00 noon and usually take about two hours. Normally two committee members will be present to oversee the inspections, and other members are encouraged to come and contribute at whatever level they are able. Regular inspections are now finished for the year and will begin again in Spring 2025. Details will be posted here.
Beginners course
Our next beginners course will be held in January 2025. See the Course page for more details.
