Swarm of bees

Thu 7 Jul 2022, 20:14

Would it be an idea to put the Oxfordshire Beekeepers' Association on the website contacts page?

Ove the last few years we've had two swarms in our garden and my wife had to hunt out the contact details. Both promptly re-housed!

I was so tempted to try and scrounge an empty hive and have a go at keeping myself, but reason prevailed in the end....

You could contact the OBKA, they're based in Woodstock and should be able to give some some guidance/help! https://obka.org.uk/info-and-swarms/swarms/
