HELP, I have Bees that have made a hive inside the punja tree beside our front door. Would not be a problem if they didnt attack us when we go outside,, or come into the house. I need them moved!
Comment by Gary and Margaret - Kiwimana on March 2, 2013 at 5:16pm The Kiwimana Buzz Beekeeping Podcast #16 – Phil Chandler and Kevin Inglin
We had great fun recording this show last weekend, if you didn't managed to get to the live show. It has now been released on video and as an audio podcast/recording.
Kevin and Phil are two of the worlds top beekeeping podcasters, so both had some great news and views to share.

Comment by Janet Luke on February 27, 2013 at 9:26pm Announcing the 2nd Annual NZ Natural Beekeeping Conference. This year it is being held in Auckland on March 23rd. More information here http://www.greenurbanliving.co.nz/index.php?CID=100111 We would love to see you there. Please pass on to all interested new, and old beekeepers.
Hi All,
The company I work for has a 10 storey office block on Vic St Auckland CBD and wed love to put some hives on the roof!
There are 3 nearby parks (within 1km as the bee flies) and were planting up veges, flowers and herbs on the roof too, so should be plenty of food sources.
Top bar or langstroth, either or both are fine, and we would sort out any consent issues.
Would be such a cool opportunity to educate surrounding office workers about the importance of bees too! We'd love them asap, but realise it may have to wait til winter.
