Previous beekeeper seeking help in restarting 🤞

[heagueshives]

I hope someone or anyone at all can help.

I have been an avid, beekeeping enthusiast for many years.

After falling ill a few ago, the treatment I received proved too much, and I could no longer care for my bees. I was left with no choice but to re-home. Reluctantly.
Shortly followed by disbelieving I would never be able to house and nurture bees again. I sadly (and now regrettably) got rid of all my equipment.


That was then. This is now!
Recovered and recuperating. I am itching to get back hives. Get it ha.

I would be overjoyed with absolutely anything anyone can offer. And definitely need some help in locating a queen. Preferably an older queen. Just so I can get ahead 6 months this year.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

(Travel/mileage not an issue.)

Welcome back! Where are you?

The best advice I can give is that you Google who your local Beekeeping association is and make contact with them.

Hi there, if you don’t mind traveling to South Lincs then I’m selling off an entire beekeeping kit. Includes 3 hives, spare brood boxes, supers, extractor. The lot! A newbie whose decided it’s not the hobby for me...
Hives are Paradise Honey Langstroth polys. Currently 3 hives that were Queen right in Sept. Let me know if you’re interested.
