We would like to add your content to “The Amateur Beekeeper”  

Hello from the Editor

TAB Editor Fiona Fernie

I hope that you are enjoying your “new look” Magazine. The editorial team has widened the content to include “Native Bees”, but Apis Mellifera will always be our core content. Readers like stories about people and our clubs, so, if you have news or interesting topics, we would like to hear from you.

Do you have any planned events, such as field days or educational courses? Is your club planning facilities expansion? Do any of your members have stories to tell – amusing or experiences? We would love to include anecdotes or your news.

We also need photographs of flowering forage and, of course, your favourite honey recipes. These items can be just an annotated photo or recipe, although your written skills are also very much appreciated.

Beekeepers love talking to each other and your Newsletter could be your communication with each other. Thank you for all your input.
