Suffolk Beekeepers' Association is a thriving community of over 700 beekeepers, with 6 branches in Suffolk. Its purpose is to promote good beekeeping. This involves crop pollination and the collection, sale, showing and use of honey and wax.
The Suffolk Show is one of the highlights of the county calendar and a good opportunity to showcase the skills and creativity of Suffolk beekeepers. With the 2026 Show on the horizon, we would like to encourage as many members as possible to consider entering honey, wax and confectionery classes. Although the Show is two months away, the best entries are rarely produced at the last minute.
Suffolk BKA offers a hands-on course over three separate days for beekeepers who wish to achieve a higher level of skill and knowledge in the main areas of practical beekeeping. Applicants should already hold the BBKA's Basic or intend applying to take it this year. Applicants should also have four or more years beekeeping experience, but this criterion is not absolute. This will be our twelfth year running these courses. Places are limited to twelve. Early application would be wise.
