Wharfedale Beekeepers Association

General Information about WBKA

There are about eighty members in the association scattered around the stunning Wharefdale region, from Horton in Ribblesdale to Arthington.

We have recently acquired a site for an association apiary. This can be used either for training purposes or as a temporary home for members' hives.

We are also in the process of acquiring a site for a heather apiary. This will allow some members to transfer hives during the 'heather season' so that their bees can produce heather honey.

Beginners and new members welcome

We run a beginners course each year. This is a useful course for a wide range of people from complete beginners to those who already keep bees, but wish to further their knowledge.

For further information about the association or if you have any other questions you may have about beekeeping.


Please contact the membership secretary Peter Longbottom
