Summer Programme 2015

From May until September we gather at different apiaries whatever the weather. Meetings have a topic related to beekeeping but most importantly there is always a leisurely Jacob's Join tea. We have protective beekeeping clothing available to lend; if possible contact one of us first so that we can make sure we have the right equipment available to fit you. Coming to an apiary is a good way to gain the opportunity of seeing inside a beehive.

Unless otherwise stated, all apiary visits start at 2:30pm.
