Field Day Clovelly Park

Practical hands-on beekeeping experience guided by club experts.

An excellent way to gain experience in hive inspections and gain knowledge at the BSSA Apiary.

This event will feature Brood inspection super up as required 

All are welcome, but non-members are only allowed to attend two sessions before they must become financial members of the BSSA.

All participants must have at least long sleeves, long-leg trousers (preferably light-coloured), closed shoes and a head veil.

We strongly recommend you bring your own bee suit and gloves (Ansell rubber gloves are acceptable – avoid Black gloves) as the BSSA have a limited supply of veils and sizes at each session.  

Should you require the loan of bee suit for the event please add your size details in your registration response or contact Bob Beer before the event as stock is limited.

Spaces are limited, and online registrations are necessary. If you require more information about the field day, contact Bob Beer on 0413 208 835.

IMPORTANT: The field day will not proceed (according to the previous night's forecast) if:
