Beekeeping Courses for 2018 Announced

Introduction to Beekeeping Courses for 2018

The Luton course starts indoors on Sunday mornings from 18th February to 25th March at the Discovery Centre, Stockwood Park from 10.30am til 12.30pm. Then continues every Sunday morning outdoors at our Stockwood Training Apiary throughout the spring and summer.

The Bedford course starts indoors on Tuesday evenings from 13th February until 20th March at Moggerhanger village Hall from 7.30pm to 10pm. Then continues every Sunday morning outdoors at our Priory Park Training Apiary throughout the spring and summer.

The cost of the course is £60 per person. This covers the theory and practical sessions for the whole season. You are strongly encouraged to attend both theory and practical sessions. Initially bee-suits can be borrowed for practical training. It is important to gain experience in handling bees, learn what to look for when inspecting a colony and see how a colony changes during the season before embarking on beekeeping yourself.
