Wishing our community a very happy Summer festival and looking forward to participating
Come meet the bees (and us) on Sunday 20th in the North Square. Festival agenda here…
Supporting local beekeepers of all skill levels
Our approach to beekeeping is rooted in sustainability and respect for nature and each other. All community members prioritise the well-being of their bees, striving to create an environment that supports the bee’s natural instincts allowing them to thrive. By adopting responsible practices, we minimise our impact on the environment while maximising the benefits that bees provide.
