north london beekeepers
North London Beekeepers (NLB) is the home of beekeeping for many beekeepers in
Camden, Islington, Hackney, Haringey, and Westminster, parts of Brent and south
Barnet.
Our long history of promoting beekeeping goes back to the 1930s and at present
we have approximately 110 members. The NLB teaching apiary is close to Kenwood
House and Highgate Village, with additional recently opened apiaries at
Alexandra Palace and Highgate.
North London Beekeepers is one of the 75 local associations of the British
Beekeeping Associations (BBKA) that serve local communities with support and
education. We are affiliated to the Middlesex Federation of Beekeepers’
Associations, which represents our members at area and national levels on the
BBKA (www.bbka.org.uk).
North London Beekeepers aims to promote apiculture and educate people about
beekeeping by holding classes, lectures, practical workshops and discussions as
well as participating in local festivals showing live bees and selling honey. We
provide advice and assistance in numerous ways to beekeeping members of NLB,
welcoming beginners, novices and experienced beekeepers to our ‘beekeeping
club’.
