Tell us more, have you ever been through a bee hive with anyone? Have you got a starter bee keeper course booked at your local bee keepers association? Have you read any books about keeping bees....oh and welcome

Are there any in Birmingham.

Join your local BKA and you will soon find out - hundreds if not thousands. You can trace the most local BKA that suits you by Googling the BBKA website. If you want to understand beekeeping better, how about getting a book or two? I recommend "Guide to Beesa and Honey" by Ted Hooper MBE. By the time youv'e listened to the beeks at the BKA and read the book, you will know enough to make the decision as to whether you really want to get involved. It is a really frustrating, mucky at times, and expensive business to begin with.

I have looked at thousands of videos read loads after article bout them I know bit bout them and I am very serious to get in i even went to the honey show couple weeks ago. I will register on the course in January or Feb or closer when they are ready to open a hive.
