Aneebe

Retired biology teacher - trained as a palaeontologist so brachipods and bees are my preferred species. Maine **** lover, Irish fiddler, fan of no dig gardening. Live on the edge of the Belfast Hills 600ft above sea level on a North facing slope. Adore bee keeping but finding neighbours increasingly unreceptive to the idea alas despite my 1/4 acre garden. Have recently secured a council provided "bee pen" within their allotment - 3 hives moved there. Also a small area higher in the hills but quite bleak/ lack of forage. I like trying out new recipes and crafts so have had a go at everything from candle making to creaming honey. Life's an adventure. Keep walking.
