  • Apiary Field Days are held in Spring, Summer, an early autumn in Randwick community centre. We demonstrate how to manipulate bees, perform brood and disease check ups, honey harvest, swarm prevention, and winter preparation. In any case it replace a full course that has to be done before to acquire a hive It is important to pre-register / book for field days (as numbers in the apiary are limited).

Note: We are not able to accommodate children under 8 at the apiary field days. Children from 9 to 15 years must be supervised by a responsible guardian/adult and have their own protective suit (we don’t have children’s suits to hire at this stage).
