Last year I found myself involved with more bee-related activities and neglected my blog. So my New Year Resolution for 2017 is to re-fresh my blog regularly making sure to remind beekeepers of priorities for each month and include information about new learning and research that I hope will be of interest to others.
Personal Outcomes for last year included:
Passing the 'Honeybee Products and Forage' module of the British Beekeepers' Association
Capturing and successfully housing my first swarm
Joining the committee of the North London Beekeepers' Association
Writing a Health & Safety Policy and Procedures through consultation with association members
Contributing to the education and training of new beekeeepers through teaching and mentoring
Successfully re-queening two colonies at my home apiary
Managing my colonies so they did not swarm
Making beeswax furniture polish
Contributing to the National Pollinator Strategy
Reading and learning new things about bees and beekeeping to apply in practice
Making new friends through beekeeping
In achieving this I am very grateful to some special friends and fellow beekeepers who alert me to new research and offer sound counsel as we try to understand our colonies' behaviour and how best to help them thrive. Thank you all and may all our bees over-winter and have a healthy and productive 2017.
