im thinking of keeping bees too? i would like some advise on what i need etc.also i will need a bomb proof bee suit as im allergic to bee stings lol
i visited a local keeper this morning, and watched / helped as he checked through his 10 colonies. ( I should get my own bees in a fortnight)you can't be too prepared!! ;)
I always think they sound like a dynamo. The smell of an open hive is usually fantastic, unless they're making willowherb honey. That smells like rotting vegetation, but the end product is fine.
No need to be put off, it's lovely honey once it's been evaporated down. Starflower is actually borage.
