Outreach

If you’re a group, society, school or college that have an interest in honey bees and beekeeping, we can offer a range of activities including visits, talks and stands at local agricultural shows and cultural events. We’re passionate about sharing our knowledge on topics from having bees at the bottom of your garden to highlighting the pressures our pollinators are under.

Swarms

People are often worried when a swarm lands in their garden or near their house because of the noise and concerns about bee stings. If you encounter a swarm of honey bees please do not try to disperse them or destroy them. We need them and they are unlikely to survive in the wild on their own.
