Apiary Rota 2026

This is the rota for the 2026 season. All inspections will normally begin at 14:00 except the public ones, which begin with a 30-minute introduction at 13:30 [some beekeepers may begin between 10:00 and 14:00]. It would be helpful (but not compulsory) if the Apiary Manager, Mark Alleyne, knows who intends to come so he can alert members to any changes or cancellations, etc.
