Latest News:
For immediate help with honeybee swarms contact our Swarm Coordinator on 07368269491.

  • Applications are now being accepted for our Beginners Course commencing in January 2026.
  • Keep up to date with all our 2025 apiary sessions via the Teaching Apiary News page.
  • There have been multiple positive diagnoses of European Foulbrood (EFB) this year adjacent to the FDBKA area.  We therefore ask all members to be extra vigilant when undertaking hive checks, remembering to look at the health of the larvae and for any signs of disease.
