our BKA's four month course ( 20 places) for january 2011 is already full
Is this rush to help the poor Bee getting out of hand?
I am worried that the great and the good who are rushing to become beekeepers due to the publicity on the plight of the bees, will create too many amteur bee keepers with perhaps just a couple of hours tution and unable to know good practice and go off on the next Beekeeeping fad
i found a new urban beeks on an allotmnets in Tottenham london (inspecting boundary as part of my job) who had bought bees from Ebay by gift token and was feeding them a spring feed of organic honey from Brazil ...(oh i though as it was organaic it was safer...one weekend tutition of 8 hours in October2008)
They are going to use icing sugar dusting and pepermint oil patties only this year, very small brood of Carnies ...no hope
