Hello from South Devon

Post: # 144144Post beesontoast »

Hello everybody - nice site!

My mission is to encourage low-impact beekeeping as a way to restore the feral stock - and for people to have their own honey at minimum cost to them, the bees and the environment.

I'm happy to see so many people here interested in growing your own food - and I hope some of you will extend this interest into the world of pollination and honey-making!

Excellent plan!

I find myself increasingly concerned about the decline of bees.

Welcome to ISH :flower:

I shall 'bee' picking your brains, as I intend to keep bees once we've moved.
