What is it?A bee safari is a great opportunity to improve your beekeeping by seeing other people’s hives.
One or more members in a local area open the doors to their apiaries and allow us to follow hive inspections led by a guest beekeeper. The guest beekeeper talks about what they find and discusses the methods being used by the beekeeper. Often, a Seasonal Bee Inspector will take the lead and conduct full disease inspections providing everyone with a fantastic opportunity to ensure they recognise diseases that might be in their own hives. There is always plenty of time for chat and refreshments and a long break to enjoy our packed lunches. |
How much does it cost?There is no charge for members of Dean Forest Beekeepers. Refreshments are included but you should bring your own packed lunch.
