Yes it does sound a lot more complicated than when Dad and I kept bees ???
Although I am brand new to lottie life and my lottie needs lots of work to even have one little bed this year, I have found out we are allowed bees on our site. I would really love this as my grandparents neighbours kept bees and their honey was just superb. Does anyone have any experience of beekeeping, what are thoughts on it and how would I go about getting them (lie in wait by flowers and beenap them)I saw Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall programme where beeman ( official title) ???caught him a swarm and delivered them, is this the usual way? Ideas on cost etc. Thanks!! :)
It's only complicated when things go wrong. Mostly it still comes down to 'bees make honey; beekeeper steals honey'.
Gosh that sounds really evil, but guess that's about right!! Poor little bees!
I just have to ask, do you tell you secrets to your bees? XX Jeannine
