Welcome to Colchester Beekeepers
We are a group of over 100 enthusiastic Beekeepers working together to help promote and further the craft of beekeeping throughout the Borough of Colchester and Tendring District in North Essex, England.
Our members range from the hobbyist to the commercial beekeeper, from the beginner to the more experienced. We provide help and assistance to beekeepers of all abilities and the public alike through monthly meetings, lectures, discussions and, where possible, apiary visits.
Unfortunately this years beginner beekeeping course is already fully subscribed, so we are unable to accept new students until the end of the year.
We also participate and support several local shows and events where we freely give advice to the public and would be beekeepers, hopefully encouraging and promoting the importance of the Honey Bee.
