Julian Kingston - keeps bees on the creek in Deptford that produce wonderful honey. Tonight's talk looks at the practicalities of keeping bees in the urban environment.
The talk will cover the following:
How to start - space needed, equipment needed, what time it takes, approx. costs etc
Things to know - dangers / temperature issues
Benefits - to bees (apparently urban bees are flourishing) to us - health cost & sustainability.
So if you've ever fancied keeping bees but thought you don't have the time, space or experience come along and hear what it really entails.
