Beekeeping for beginners
THE Wisborough Green Division of the West Sussex Beekeepers Association is holding a Beekeeping Beginners Day on Sat Feb 2 at Pulborough Village Hall.
This has been designed to suit those who have no experience of beekeeping and would like to investigate this absorbing hobby that is fast growing in popularity. It is also suitable for those who have some experience, and may have kept bees for some time.
Amongst the subjects covered will be how to start, information sources, teaching facilities, siting beehives, equipment required, what bees collect, the bees' life cycle, and much, much, more. Contact Roger Patterson 01403 790 637, 07976 306 492, or [email protected] for details.
