The Beehive Thread

Cormac2010

Hi Everyone,
I'm a beekeeper looking for a place to keep a number of beehives. If you own or know someone who owns some land. Any corner of a field would be suitable, overgrown by brambles etc... 5/10 m2
The benefit for you is honey at the end of the season, and once you've tasted real honey you'll never settle for the supermarket stuff again.

I'm a member of a local beekeeping association, have suitable insurance as part of the Irish Beekeepers Association.
Thanks and regards,
Cormac

Hey there,

I am looking for a place to put a beehive in the Dublin area. I live in the city centre and have no garden so it is impossible for me to have it at home.

If anyone is interested in bees and their wonderful way to keep biodiversity by pollinating plants, trees and crops and has a small piece of land where the beehive can be put, please contact me.

If you have an orchard or any other plants that need the help of pollinators, the bees will definitely increase your crop.
I would prefer somewhere easy to get by public transport or cycling from the Dublin city centre since I don't have a car.

I would need to do periodic visits every 7/14 days from April to August, and just a couple of visits at the beginning of the autumn and end of the winter.

Bees are not dangerous as some people may think (anyway I would get an insurance), they just do their work as long as they are not disturbed. And it is an endangered specie, there are no more wild bees in this country so it depends on us to save this wonderful animal.

Anyone interested??

Gah, I remember a similar request being posted a while ago but I can't remember if it was here, Louth or Meath.

**goes off on a search**

I can get you access to some land between Swords and Ballyboughal . Plenty of brambles and not many people.

PM me for details.

Re-posting this reply to Fersio's thread (http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055913647) as I noticed a couple of threads had been merged.


I'd be more than happy for you to put the hives in my garden. Its a half-acre so we can find somewhere for you to stick them in no problem. I live in Loughshinny near Skerries in the north of Dublin, and its serviced by the number 33 bus. Don't know if that's too far out for you. Drop me a pm if that's any use to you.

Try the Dublin City forum if you don't have any luck here.

hiho1967

Just bumping this to see if anyone in mayo is looking somewhere to put beehives. I have some land there and hoping to get a few hives myself in spring and could do with someone with experience showing me the ropes. They can put theyre hives there for free

The Hill Billy

You really should try posting in the Mayo forum if you haven't done so already.
