It is also suitable for those who have had bees for a short time and want to gain some more experience. On this course we cover - - The life of the honeybee - How to set up an apiary - The beekeeping year - Equipment you will need - Working with the bees - Products of the hive.

Please note that whilst we do our best to ensure that you do not get stung if you are aware that you have a severe allergic reaction to bee stings these courses are not for you as they all involve working with live bees.
