Welcome from BeesMax
BeesMAX at The Barwell Estate
BeesMax bee hives have been installed at The Barwell Estate supporting the crucial rehoming programme from BeesMax. The hives also provides a resource for the local community to learn about the life of bees, the programmes in place to support the regeneration of the bee population in the UK, and how their existence plays a crucial role in our lives.
GETTING INVOLVED
The hives at The Barwell Estate
Since the original installation the BeesMAX honeybees at The Barwell Estate the location has become an important feature on the BeesMAX calendar and we’d like to thank all the staff who have championed this through to completion.
There is so much that can be learned by staff going the distance and putting on specialist beekeeping PPE and observing the interior of a colony.
