Two years ago I moved into a new house.
One of the first things I noticed was the large amount of Bees that visited our new garden.
After some exploration on-line, I decided that I would like to try and be a Bee Friendly person.
• Step One was to contact my local Bee Keeping Society (Portsmouth).
• Step Two was to get onto an 'Introduction to Bee keeping course'
• Step Three - this is where I am currently at -
To obtain the necessary equipment – After some on-line hunting
I ordered some basic Bee keeping equipment,
which should start arriving early next week
I still have 2 Sundays left on my Bee keeping course and then I should be ready for step four –
Obtaining a Bee Hive, and some Bees.
I have decided to start with a Langstroth Hive, which Admin is currently looking after for me.
