It really is wonderful working on initiatives like this to engage and educate the public and younger generations about how important our pollinators really are! 🐝 Get in touch to find out how you can help!

In 2021 we worked with @BuckleysBees to install two bee hives at Kings Moat Garden Village in #Chester. The bees have been happily living amongst residents ever since, and the weekly beekeeper visits are a highlight for many who live there 🐝 #WorldBeeDay bit.ly/4bNsRzO

It’s World Wildlife Day! 🐝 Did you know 80% of swarms don’t survive in the wild due to loss of habitat, food, climate change and pests and diseases. So it’s so important to contact a beekeeper if you see a swarm of honey bees! #nativebee #worldwildlifeday

In January the days begin to get longer and the Queen begins to lay eggs. You need to ensure there is enough food. Feed fondant if necessary. Check the entrance is clear of hive debris. Make sure the hive is dry and the roof is sound. #beediary #January

Ordinarily bees produce wax from the glands on their body. Have you seen this behaviour before?

In our collective 70 years of beekeeping we have never seen a honeybee collecting wax

Happy New Year! Buckley's Bees are father and daughter David and Emma Buckley who have more than 65 years of beekeeping experience between them. They are on a mission to raise awareness of the importance of the native bee population and to sustainably reverse their decline.

Honeybees Facts: A Queen Bee can live up to 5 years; nectar is high in natural sugars providing energy for the bees to work; and a bees wing strokes approximately 11,400 times per minute! #queenbees

We can all do our bit to help pollinators whether that's in our gardens, balconies or windowsills. Planting a range of flowers to that they have access to nectar throughout the season is important. 🐝#pollinators #flowers #nectar #planting
