Bee Keeping
Lizzia has just finished her bee-keeping course with Quantock BeeKeepers and the lovely Ken Edwards...the bees are on their way, and so is the honey!
Keeping bees is something I have longed to do from being a child. In fact, I have no idea why I haven’t done it before now. I was completely outbid on some bee-keeping equipment at the Walford Cross auction last year, and there was not a sausage in the beekeeping department to be found there this year, so we are going to have to bite the bullet and purchase some gear.
Quantock Bee Keepers Association have a wealth of knowledge that they are happy to impart to you – they run practical courses for beginners and intermediates with demonstrations about building hives, swarm management, pests and diseases etc.
