Natural Beekeeping International Forum

Hi Folks

I have been asked by an outdoor education centre if I would be interested in putting together a beekeeping course for them. I have said that if I did it would be based around top bar hive beekeeping and they are happy with that.
I am just trying to decide if there is time to get information out for something this year or to go with next year now. Just as a straw pole is there any interests in courses in this location?

I've seen most interest from April to October. Potential beekeepers seem to hibernate...😀

Good luck.

I think I will perhaps look at doing a one day in the first instance in mid-august. I don't think this will clash with anyone elses' courses.

In the future, there is the option for doing residential at this centre with both dorms and camping available.

Yes I would be interested. Great to meet up with like minded people and I'm keen to learn, I'm also fairly local being in Hartlepool.
The North Yorkshire moors, the best place on earth.

I am trying to lock in the 13th August. It is just whether it is too short notice for booking. I would really like to get it going though. I already have the content shorted so it is just the booking now. Quite excited.

Hi Folks

I am have been given a date of the 13th August for a day training course on Top Bar beekeeping. This is pitched to be suitable for new beekeepers or those already using other hive types (so beginner to intermediate).
Lunch is provided and some course material will be given to take away.
