Our apiary blog: tales from the hive

Welcome to the Duneaton & Wandel Honey Bee Apiaries blog, where we share our seasonal stories, observations, and the heart of our beekeeping journey. Discover the rhythm of nature that guides our work in the Lanarkshire hills of Scotland.

Seasonal work and apiary events

Follow along with the changing seasons as we describe the vital work and exciting events within our apiary. From preparing hives for spring to harvesting honey in late summer, each post offers a glimpse into the dedicated care our bees receive and the natural cycles we observe.

Nature, weather, and countryside life

Delve into our notes on the fascinating interplay between weather changes, the surrounding nature, and our beekeeping practices. We share observations of local flora and fauna, the impact of Scottish weather on our colonies, and general tales from our tranquil countryside life. It's an intimate look at the environment that makes our honey so unique.
