September Bee Group meeting

1.30 - What's happening in my hive? session
2.00 - At this month's meeting Phil will take us through Bee Swarms and Hive Splits. We will look at things like - what makes bees swarm anyway? What can I do to prevent my bees from swarming? How do I catch a swarm if I see one? We will also look at the difference between Splitting Hives, Nucleus Hives, and Artificial Swarming - and how to artificially swarm whether you can find the queen or not. We may also do a practical demonstration, weather permitting.

Buzz Groups - Come along prepared with any questions you may want answered as we'll split in to groups at the end of the meeting so that you can connect with other beekeepers in your area.
