Norfolk Beekeepers' Association - getting started

Honey comb ready for extraction

Beginners workshops - now fully booked for 2011

Thought about keeping honeybees yourself but don’t know where to start?
The Norfolk Beekeepers Association are holding a Beginners’ Workshop aimed
specifically at those who are interested in keeping honeybees and wish to know a
little more about them and what is involved in beekeeping.

The morning will start with slides and a talk about the honeybee and its activities.
After this we shall have a coffee break during which you will have the opportunity to
see various items of beekeeping equipment, talk to beekeepers to ask questions.
We will then move to the Easton College apiary where we shall open beehives and
you will be able to get a close up of bees at work. Protective clothing will be provided
where necessary.

Date of Workshop: Sunday July 10th 2011
Place: Easton College Sports & Conference Centre, Nr. Norwich
Time: 9.30 am to approx.12.30 / 1pm
