Hi all,
I am in a nice Victorian wall Garden, with a lot of fruit trees planted (Apples, pears, cherries, plumbs, berries of all kind and a lot of flowers), in the central belt of Scotland. Although I have not experience a major pollination issue in my garden as all the produce generally thrive thanks to the wildlife ( wasps, bees, birds etc), also thanks to the nice weather apart icy wind (that hammered lots of things early in May). I wold like to establish a bees hive. This is mainly for honey production, wildlife preservation and general interest.
Could anyone share suggestions on websites active (got in touch with many with poor response) for training, equipement purchase, social (distancing). If you are local on ML2 area give me a shout! it will only cost you a training + 2 jars of honey, lol! I will buy back experience & equipment.
Apart this, if anyone has valuable reading, reference suppliers and general suggestions, please get in touch!
Antonio
