Gardening for bees
Woodland, hedgerows, meadows and verges have been disappearing at an alarming rate and parts of the countryside are now green deserts with very few wild flowers so bees need your help! Read more on the BBKA website
Swarms
If you find a swarm or a bees nest or have a honey bee problem in the local area, please read the BBKAs swarm advice before taking any other action. To contact your nearest Swarm Collector use the BBKAs 'Find a local Swarm Collector' tool.
Buy local honey
Many of our members sell their honey direct to the buyer or via local shops and markets. Find out where your nearest local honey supplier is.
