Natural Beekeeping Course

First of all, I would like to thank everybody that came out to the Natural Beekeeping course on Sunday, braving the cold blustery conditions. It was a productive day with loads of interesting questions. The group was a mix of experienced Beekeepers with several hives of their own as well as non-experienced but interested aspiring Beekeepers.

There is another Natural Beekeeping Course scheduled for April 14, taking place in Leap, West Cork. This course is a repeat of the March 10 Course and is intended to introduce Beekeeping through Natural methods rather than the usual Commercial program. The courses are open to Beekeepers of all levels and cover the following topics: Bees, Honey, Commercial Beekeeping, Natural Beekeeping, Bee Health, Disease, Poisons, Getting Started, Equipment, and Research. There are empty Top Bar hives on display and working Top Bar hives on the premises for viewing as well.

If there is enough interest expressed, I will run a Top Bar Hive building workshop sometime before the end of April. Any one interested can contact me at maxdanann@gmail.com

Regards,
Max
