NB: Visitor numbers at Highbury Apiary are currently restriced to members only. If you have any questions about visiting please call the Apiary Manager (see Contacts page.)
Summer Meetings are held at our Apiary in Highbury Park. Association and members’ hives undergo inspection by that well known pest of the bee, the beekeeper.
2.00pm every Saturday between June and August.
See the Highbury Apiary page for further information.
Winter meetings (September to March) are lively and educational with a mixture of lectures and talks covering the basics for new beekeepers and other topics. Non-members and visitors are very welcome to attend. I promise we are a very friendly and welcoming bunch. Tea and biscuits to follow, sometimes there may be cake.
Winter Meetings … members will be informed of meeting dates and topics/speakers via email
Meetings usually commence at 7.30pm.
