Our club apiary is up and running with one hive in residence. As we are in a cold climate zone, the bees are not very active in winter unless it's a nice, warm day.
John Scott, our Vice President and Biosecurity Officer is looking after the apiary with the help of our wonderful volunteers.
We could not carry on without volunteers so if you wish to volunteer to help with the apiary with things such as maintenance inspections etc then please don't hesitate to get in touch. We need you!
The enclosure could also do with some art work on the inside fence. If you are able to help we want to know about it. 😉
So far all expenses have been covered by the fund raising done throughout 2023 but we still need to purchase some equipment and hopefully a garden shed for storage. Furthermore, we plan to have some beekeeping suits available to provide opportunities for non-beekeepers to join us during inspections to experience the joy of beekeeping.
