Calendar
Our calendar is at the heart of association life, bringing members together to learn, share, and enjoy beekeeping in good company. In the summer months we meet on the third Sunday of the month, visiting members’ apiaries to explore different approaches and gain valuable hands-on experience. Some gatherings are held at the association apiary, where the focus is on practical teaching and working with the bees. During the winter we move indoors, meeting on the third Thursday of the month to hear from guest speakers, catch up with friends, and of course enjoy a cuppa and a slice of cake. Whatever the season, our meetings are a warm and welcoming way to connect with fellow beekeepers and support our shared love of bees.

Visit to Amanda's Apiary
Amanda's Apiary
Amanda has a few colonies that have been keeping everyone guessing, so we’ll be putting our collective beekeeping brains to work to see if we can solve the mystery together. If the bees have finished emerging in the supers, there may also be an opportunity to remove the honey supers and see Amanda’s method for clearing bees before extraction. As always, member apiary visits are a wonderful chance to share ideas, ask questions, learn from one another and enjoy good company over a cup of tea.
