Swarm policy – Kennet BKA

Dear Kennet Beekeeper,

If you want a swarm or to buy a nucleus from another KBKA member, please let me know. I will need a contact number for you and whether you would be willing to assist a swarm collector in collecting and hiving the swarm for you. Please send an email to me at info@kennet-beekeepers.co.uk.

If your name is on the list, there is no guarantee that you will get a swarm.

If any KBKA member has a nucleus they wish to sell, please let me know and I will let the wider membership know. Please note, the sale of such a nucleus is a private transaction, and therefore not the responsibility nor the liability of the Association.

Regards

John Barber

KBKA Secretary

About KBKA

Kennet Beekeepers Association (KBKA) draws members from the Calne, Chippenham, Devizes and Marlborough areas of Wiltshire. We strive to promote and further the craft of beekeeping and to represent the interests of beekeepers in the local area. We are affiliated to both the Wiltshire Beekeeping Association and the British Beekeepers Association, representing members at county and national levels.

We welcome potential members from all walks of life and can offer many benefits to both the established beekeeper and the complete novice. Some of our members have many years of practical beekeeping experience and this valuable resource is available to new beekeepers.
