Shipston Beekeepers Winter Talk – Keeping Healthy Colonies – Margaret Murdin

Our first 2nd Monday meeting of 2023 is a talk by Margaret Murdin NDB on ‘Keeping Healthy Colonies.

Margaret is a Master Beekeeper, holds the National Diploma in Beekeeping and is a Past President of the BBKA but describes herself as an ordinary, practical beekeeper, currently with twenty colonies across three apiaries. Margaret began as a member of Ormskirk and Croston Branch in Lancashire where she learnt her beekeeping over the years before moving to North Oxfordshire.

Margaret’s background is in education, so she is naturally interested in furthering the education and training opportunities available to our BBKA members. ‘We have a duty to our bees and to the public to be as good as we can as beekeepers.’

Members will receive an email with the location of The Brailes Free School where this event is being held.
