HBE C1

Our intermediate beekeeping course aims to build confidence in the more experienced beekeeper who may have already been to an introductory course and/or kept bees for several years.  With a hands-on approach, we teach you how to ‘read the tea leaves’ and understand the balance of the hive so that you are well equipped to do a little more with your bees.

At the opening of the class, we ask attendees to let us know what they are hoping to learn.  This allows us to lead the class through, often shared, topics of interest and leave us with greater practical knowledge that they can utilise at home. For example, people may learn the tricks to splitting a hive or altering the genetics of an aggressive or failing hive by re-queening.

NOTE: ALL MORNING COURSES WILL BE FILLED BEFORE AFTERNOON COURSES WILL BE OFFERED
