About our bees
We have been keeping bees at the nursery now for over 3 years (having previously kept them in the UK). We have our bees in British National and Commercials and French Dadant Hives and we are now exploring a couple of ‘sustainable’ hive systems.
Swarms
We can collect swarms and give aid/advice on the extraction of bees from awkward places - just give us a call.
Looking to explore?
At the apiary we have some taster beekeeping afternoons aimed at giving you an introductory look at keeping bees. Maybe come along and find out, or book for someone else - possibly even a small group visiting for an ‘alternative’ afternoon out - more details
Wish to Learn?
If you are interested in learning more about beekeeping we have various workshops and courses coming up during the year - see more details
These courses are now underway - but if you are interested come and chat or get your name down for next year!
Meet Other Beekeepers
If you already keep bees we are hosting beekeepers meetings at our Salon de The (La Chevrerie) - (2nd Weds of the Month 7-9pm) more details
Read All About It?
At La Chevrerie we have an ever-growing collection of bee books and subscribe to some journals and magazines - you’re welcome to come and read and study over a cup of coffee.
And Items To Buy...
And finally we have a range of hive products available from our apiary - candles, cosmetics, furniture polish - and of course - honey!
