"Had a wonderful day with Dafydd and Dawn .
A very informative and hands on course from two very friendly, passionate and welcoming people.
Would strongly recommend going on this day course whether you just want to learn more about bees or if you intend to keep bees."
"I only went to TBF as an experience. I knew my wife liked bee's so thought she would enjoy it. We both found it to be fantastic. Dawn and Dafydd are brilliant. Very patient answering all questions and explaining everything you could possibly want to know about bees. They clearly love life and what they do. Honey also tastes fantastic. You really think honey bees are brilliant after seeing them in the hive. An experience everyone should have just to see what nature can achieve. They make you feel at ease at all points with bee's in close proximity not being a worry. Only FYI would bee is that they don't mention you need to take a baseball cap to keep the net away from your face. That you need to wear long socks. Also to wear trousers. I changed into trousers. Dawn gave me an oversized suit to mitigate the fact I was only wearing trainers socks. She also kindly lent us baseball caps. If you have a bucket list put this course on it :) you won't regret it."
"Had a very enjoyable experience on the 3 hour bee course with Dafyd. A great insight into bee keeping for a beginner, which has left me wanting to know more. Would thoroughly recommended this course to anyone with the slightest interest in bees."
Anglesey Bees responded:
"Glad that you found the experience enjoyable. Looking forward to seeing you again soon to discover more about the bees!"
"As a novice to beekeeping, Dafydd introduced all the relevant subject matter for a beginner to understand and think about starting conventional beekeeping. Dafydd is obviously very experienced both as a keeper and someone who can communicate well to deliver comprehensive material. The practical elements of the course works well with the theory and combined produce an effective programme over two days. Personally I would have liked a bit more on natural beekeeping as my goal for attending was aimed at pollination rather that harvesting honey, however, I found the theory very interesting and certainly raised my awareness of the subject matter. I would recommend this course as a really good introduction with fascinating practical modules carried out in a perfectly safe environment, located in one of the most attractive areas in North Wales."
