Events

Each year the association attends a number of public events, with the aim to raise awareness of the honeybee and promote responsible beekeeping. We bring along a live observation hive of honeybees and sell hive related products including honey. Our association members are available to answer questions about Beekeeping and provide free information leaflets.

Our stand is often popular with children who love to spot the Queen Bee in the observation hive.

In 2025 we attended: 

Kelmarsh Festival of Country Living

Northamptonshire Heritage Festival

Hollowell Steam Rally.
