At Gorfanc, as in the rest of the U.K., the ‘summer’ of 2012 has been a difficult one for honeybees.
Despite an abundance of flowers, at times continuous rain has kept the bees at home and some stocks needed a feed of sugar even in June.
However, more recent sunny days really had the nectar flowing from willowherb, clover, blackberry and other flowers from the fields and hedgerows around Gorfanc:- happy bees!
More news soon about the harvest that we hope is in store!
Happy Bees at the Gorfanc Apiary
Go Bees! Go Pippa and Rob!
