isitafox Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Bit of an odd one I know but has anyone on here had any experience with it or knows someone who does it?? Had my boss in this morning and he was telling me that his dad had a few hives to keep him busy and said I should look into it with living on a farm as I've got more than enough land to use and they're relatively low maintainance to look after. Gonna order a book I've been recommended off Amazon and investigate further! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Dunstan Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 There's been a lot of buzz on the news about bee keeping, I think you have to have a license of some kind? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 I went to a local 'open day' at a farm and seems pretty easy! Certainly a growing past time, it really was a hive of activity when I went! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
