Welcome
to BHBKA
The Burnham and Highbridge Division of the
Somerset Beekeepers Assn.
online pages.
Bees
have been making honey since pre-history! And mankind has taken advantage
of its unique properties for nearly as long! Beekeeping has been a
pastime or indeed a necessity of kings and countrymen for centuries and is
evolving all the time.
Here in the Burnham area we have an
enthusiastic group of apiarists (Beekeepers), The
intention of this website is, to promote
beekeeping, to keep members and the public
informed and to show you
what we get up to. And hopefully encourage
you to take a look at the many aspects
and rewards of beekeeping, And to perhaps
welcome you into our Association.
Associate membership costs as little as £1 per annum!
If you are beekeeper or thinking about taking up beekeeping
and would
like to know more about bees or pollination etc. Contact me on
01934 750274 or email John
Webmaster.
Our meetings take place
about once a month during
the summer. Meetings usually concentrate on a seasonal aspect of
beekeeping, with practical hands on
demonstrations for beginners and experienced apiarists
alike. This is usually followed by the serious business of refreshments
and... running the division?
