Save Our Bees Charitable Trust has been founded to conserve and protect New Zealand Honey Bees. It's aims are to educate people about the importance of bees in New Zealand horticultural and agricultural industries and in the home garden. We plan to promote a more natural, easier and cheaper way to keep bees so that more New Zealanders can be encouraged and supported in keeping bees in their backyards. Save Our Bees Charity also publishes educational material about bees and natural beekeeping methods and provides resources and contacts for backyard beekeepers. The Trust aims to run free seminars and workshops on Top Bar Beekeeping around New Zealand and provide ongoing support. Make some Poor Mans Capers |
