We have now started our Queen rearing group based at our home apiary at Ash Cottage.
One of our two Galtee Queens has been accepted and is laying well.
The next meeting will commence grafting from “the Red Queen” and we hope to populate the ARDS Peninsula with native bees as all the local beekeepers are involved with our group.
Thanks to Jonathan Getty for keeping us on the right track.
