Monday between 11am-1pm at The People’s Communtiy Garden, Maidenhall Allotments, Halifax Road, Ipswich, IP2 8RE

We run friendly sessions for people who would like to find out what beekeeping is all about and perhaps get involved on a regular basis. If you would like to find out more about beekeeping, why not come along to one of our taster sessions.

To get a feel what it takes to handle bees, you can observe the hive being opened and checked from the safety of our hide. If you would like to experience beekeeping first hand, you can borrow a suit and shadow our bee-keepers, who will guide you through a routine hive inspection.

Our observation fee is £5 per person. Our beekeeping experience fee is £10 per person.

To book your place at an open session, please contact Ian on 07599 951060 or email Ian@activlives.org.uk
