23 May on the Apiary

Tomorrow Colin and I will be around from about 11.00am until 12.00 for routine work.  From 1.30pm till 3.00pm we'll be looking for the Queen in hive 7, and replacing her with a queen we've reared ourselves.
On Saturday we set out the Dartford Beekeepers stall at the Bean School Fete.  We made some useful contacts one of whom is chair of the Bean Parish Council and she wants us to attend the Bean Village Fete with our displays and the various "products of the hive" in September.  The school also has a resident colony of bees in their roof and we are planning to recover these bees.  Colin suggested that we record the process of recovery for the interest of the staff and children.  Perhaps photos and videos on discs or maybe a Powerpoint presentation.
