We are a small group of amateur Beekeepers situated on the Moray Firth some 30 miles east of Inverness in Scotland
No hobby is more fascinating or rewarding than beekeeping and nothing gives greater pleasure than eating one's own honey ... honey that tastes as it should!
Honeybees are essential for the environment to pollinate fruit and crop plants, not only for us humans but also for the birds and small mammals.
We hold a series of apiary meetings throughout the summer, April through August.
If you would like more information,
Please contact us
or in fact turn up at one of the meetings to learn more and we will endeavour to provide you with a bee suit.
The loss of billions of bees raises questions about our pesticide controls ?
Rachel Carson was vilified by an industry smear nearly 50 years ago, after the release of her book, "Silent Spring."
"If we were to follow the teachings of Miss Carson," said American Cyanamid, the makers of DDT, "we would return to the Dark Ages ... insects, vermin and disease would once again inherit the Earth."
But, as Carson so eloquently put it in a CBS documentary in 1964 .....
"Man's attitude toward nature is today critically important simply because we
now have acquired a fateful power to alter and destroy nature .....
But man is part of nature, and his war is inevitably a war against himself."

If the bee disappears from the earth, humans only have four more years to live.
No more
bees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more humans

Einstein" (1949)
