What is it?

Attendance of our apiary meetings is included in all memberships. If you are not a member, but would like to come and meet us, please get in touch to arrange a complimentary visit.

With 20 hives and experienced beekeepers on hand to explain and advise you have the opportunity to see hives in virtually all stages of development and understand the management options available to you.

Apiary sessions are arranged so that hive checks and any necessary changes or treatment are carried out by members in small teams. As well as helping to maintain and develop the apiary, the sessions offer an ideal way to learn by putting theory into practice and carrying out real tasks with help at hand.

​We have a clubhouse to cover situations when the weather does not let us inspect our bees or just to somewhere to site and enjoy a cup of tea with friends.

When is it?

Apiary meetings are held every Thursday from 6pm from the start of April till the end of September at our association apiary in Lydney.
