Jan reviewed: Straw skep hive making course 9 September - with Bees for Development

"Enjoyed the day and learned a lot but one third of the skep was not achieved by anyone, so I think that was an ambitious promise."

We will review our course description to reflect what is achievable in the time available but are glad you enjoyed the day and hope to see you again. Thank you for supporting Bees for Development.

Charli and Tim reviewed: Mead Making with Chris Park and Bees for Development

"Had a lovely time with Chris in and around his home, collecting spring water, picking botanicals for the mead and of course making the mead from the honey. We found the talk on the mythology and history of mead especially fascinating. Though they were not active we also got to see several of his hives and the bees therein. Chris was a great host and teacher, was engaging and personable. The location was beautiful and also steeped in history. Would recommend to anyone interested in mead, regardless of their experience in brewing or bee keeping. "
