Blueberry Hill Farm Sneem
 

Check out the “Make your own Beehive” weekend, where everyone can make a full beehive them self and take it home afterwards.

  1. Beehive Building Workshop

A ready-to-go beehive can be expensive, but with a little practice, it's possible to assemble one yourself, a lot more economically. In our workshop you will learn everything you need to construct your own beehives.


Tips and tricks for amateur woodworkers and professionals

In the beekeeping store there are many individual parts which you can buy cheaply. We'll explain exactly what you need and what to look out for when you buy. If you want to build many beehives it could be worth making some parts yourself. We'll show you how to get started.


When you have finished your first beehive, the next one is easy!

Throughout this workshop we'll build a complete beehive together. Every participant will get the practical experience and detailed plans to repeat the process at home, with ordinary tools and materials.
