Will has a vast knowledge of all things bees. Not only are the sessions a mine of information, they are absolutely fascinating. Will has a way of engaging and encouraging, which comes very naturally to him. Darren is a star at the apiary too! There are also plenty of opportunities for extra sessions and a chat group to help with all manner of questions too.. I would wholeheartedly recommend giving one of the courses a try. You’ll be glad you did!
