Our Honeybees need YOU !

Our honey bee population is decreasing at an alarming and unacceptable rate. There were markedly fewer bees working the plants in this area last year and pollination of fruits and cereals will be at risk. A large proportion of the food we eat (up to one third) is dependent on pollination so we are all affected.  Keeping bees in your garden is very rewarding and not as daunting a task as you may think, and there is a lot of help at hand -; http://www.britishbee.org.uk/new_beekeepers.php    Alternatively, you could also help by sponsoring a beehive with the British Beekeepers Association ( BBKA ) http://www.adoptabeehive.co.uk/
