We haven't had a lot of time for our veggie garden this year, so we have focussed on herbs, and supporting our insect wildlife instead!

So we had a bit of a setback with our queen bee that arrived in May - the cold weather and persistent north westerly winds upset her and she took off for pastures new.

Upsetting though it was, when we spoke with our very own experienced JoB - science teacher and beekeeper extraordinaire, she informed us that the weather has played havoc with hives this year. As you will know, the long wet winter and cold spring has been a disaster for insects, including well established bee colonies.

So we decided to go to Ash who owns Dartmoor Beekeeping and provides excellent beekeeping courses (which our staff attend). Ash has nurtured and produced a beautiful nuc of native bees which arrived with a very productive queen and thousand of bees on Friday!

Fingers crossed the weather stays warm so they can build their colony into the autumn and winter.
