Hello everyone, and Happy New Year!
Attached is the January–March 2026 newsletter. To give you a taste of what’s inside, I’ve included a brief summary below to whet your appetite 🙂
I hope you enjoy reading it, along with the extra highlights noted below.
This newsletter from the Ipswich and East Suffolk Beekeepers’ Association provides a comprehensive guide for apiarists during the early months of 2026. It outlines essential seasonal maintenance, such as monitoring food stores and hive health, while highlighting upcoming educational workshops and regional meetings. Expert summaries from the National Honey Show offer technical advice on the benefits of drawn comb and the risks posed by emerging pests like Tropilaelaps mites. The document also addresses broader industry issues, including the authenticity of supermarket honey and the impact of invasive Asian Hornets. Finally, it encourages community involvement through committee profiles, volunteer opportunities for the Suffolk Show, and local study groups.
