Honey Show 2019
Another interesting and at times difficult year for our bees, with an early start to the season soon followed very quickly for the need to feed due to lack forage, due again to unseasonal weather conditions through the spring and summer. We are hoping that many of you will have a good honey yield and will be keen to show other members not only your Bees’ hard work but also yours.
