Natural Beekeeping International Forum

Hi there,

I'm hoping to find someone who is open to having me as a volunteer to help them with their hives in the Sussex area (specifically Brighton & Hove, I live in Hove).

I've been interested in bee-centred natural bee keeping for quite a few years and have always wanted to get involved. I've never been in a position to help with bees or to set up any of my own hives (which I'd love to do at some stage but I want to volunteer with someone first so that I can learn how to be with the bees and not cause any harm through rushing or ignorance) but hoping to start now.

Thanks in advance,

Hannah

Too far unfortunately but that's a great idea hope you find someone to mentor you

Hi Hannah,
I have a colony of bees in my garden that arrived unannounced in June this year! They have filled two Warre boxes and are now working on a third one.
You are very welcome to come and meet them.
I'm looking out for more people in the area to set up a group, or revive the Lewes and Brighton one that has not been very active recently.

Hi Hannah, my bees are in Washington and at work....I stay late if I need to do anything, so not much help at present I am afraid. There are lots of bees about in the Brighton area so you might find someone....maybe too many!

Jenny...not a good idea to have your email address as your user name...I would change it to your name like me or to a nick/user name you like.

I work very long hours but might be persuaded to contribute to a group in some way.
