Education
The Illawarra Beekeepers works in our community to educate and inform individuals and community groups.
We conduct several courses each year targeting from beginners to advanced beekeepers. These courses are always in high demand with one on one tuition and theory in our apiary.
Why Keep Bees
Bees are under threat worldwide and Australia as an island is currently protected from many of the issues affecting bees world wide.
Learn Beekeeping
Do you want to get away from mass produced supermarket honey and learn how you can harvest honey from your backyard? One hive will produce more honey than you will need for the year so you will find you can either give away or sell the rest. Like most things there is a right and wrong way to keep bees.
Course Bookings
We hold at least 4 courses beekeeping per year. To find out what courses are available, select the more info button below. Remember spots are very limited and they sell out fast so book ASAP to avoid disappointment!
