A Year In The Apiary - Introduction
Updated: May 17
I have a honeybee apiary close to Padbury with around 5 hives. I say around 5 hives because this number varies according to the behaviour of the honeybees themselves. My blog is going to cover 'a year in the apiary', so you can live the experience with me as the year progresses, from swarm season in late spring, through to honey production in Summer, and winter preparation in the Autumn. A month by month account of what's happening in the apiary.
