The course makes a perfect gift for the nature lover in your life. You or the recipient will receive a voucher plus you can add the excellent "Do Beekeeping" book and a "Save the Bees" enamel badge to your order with the option of a gift box.

Spaces are very limited so book now to avoid disappointment. 10 people max per workshop with two experienced instructors. Workshops run from 10.30am - 2.30pm with a break for lunch.
For those travelling longer distances there's accommodation at the farm. Email info@worminsterfarm.com or visit the website for further info.
Suits and all equipment are provided. We ask you not to wear open toed sandals or shoes and to bring a pair of socks.
Beekeeping is weather dependent. If it's too cold or wet we won't be able to open the hives but don't worry there's plenty of other things we can do.
Cancellations made less than 4 weeks prior to the workshop date will be liable to 50% of the course fee.
