Our Mudrenicagi Team spent a fantastic couple of days with the Dama Beekeeping Group as we continued with our Training and Mentoring Program.
Our training focused on hive splitting and honey harvesting.
On the first day, we had hoped to split a number of hives but instead were able to catch a large swarm and rehabilitate a hive that was filled with burr comb.
Great practice for capturing wild hives or for bee removals.
We started the second day with honey tasting and a discussion about what a beekeeper can do to improve honey quality.
And to top off the two days we managed to harvest about 60kg honey from Taiyab Mohammed’s bee hives.
Thanks to the Irish Government and Fiji Farmer to Farmer for sponsoring this training event.
