Welcome to the West Sussex Beekeepers' Association
About this website
This website is intended to give information to those who are either interested in hive products and their uses or the keeping of honeybees in West Sussex - or both. It is deliberately simple as we want to make it easy for the visitor to find the information they want.
The vast majority of beekeeping activity is done at Divisional level, and for that reason this website should be seen as a signposting service. We hope your enquiry can be dealt with quickly at local level.
Found a swarm?
Please use the Divisions link to find your local Division and members who will be pleased to deal with swarms of honeybees.
A swarm in May is worth a load of hay;
A swarm in June is worth a silver spoon;
But a swarm in July is not worth a fly.
- Proverb
Quote for the month
The pedigree of honey
Does not concern the bee;
A clover, any time, to him (sic)
Is aristocracy.
- Emily Dickinson
