Hives for Bees
Where: The Bee Classroom, Ashurst Wood, West Sussex RH19 3RX
When: 28 Jan 2012 to 28 Jan 2012 - From 10:00 to 15:30
Event Information
This new course has arisen from the many questions we are asked about “which hive is best?” and the limited time we have on our courses to address this subject. It is designed to help those who are considering beekeeping, and also those who are already in possession of hives and would like to adopt a more bee-friendly way of caring for their bees.
We will explore the advantages and disadvantages of the six hive types of which we have examples (Einraumbeute/Golden Hive, Warre hive, National, Horizontal Top Bar, skep, WBC), with mention of others as required by the participants.
Cost: There is no set fee for this course. Instead, participants are kindly requested to submit a donation to the Natural Beekeeping Trust.
Please bring some lunch to share. Organic refreshments will be provided.
Places are limited and booking is essential.
