You can also avail of our Gardening Courses & Bee Keeping Courses, which we run throughout the year.
Warré Hive Natural Beekeeping Course with Tanguy de Toulgoet.
The Warré hive is the perfect tool, for keeping the native Irish honey bee, without too much intervention, no treatment and no sugar feeding. During this beekeeping course you will learn the basis of natural beekeeping. It will take place in our working kitchen garden, at Dunmore Country School, in Durrow County Laois.
Please note we don't disturb the bees so we don't open an hive during the day.
From 10am to 3pm. Lunch Tea/Coffee included.
SUSTAINABILITY IS THE CORE VALUE OF OUR BUSINESS.

"Just a quick mail to thank you for a fantastic morning last Saturday. I have been in the horticultural industry all my life and your enthusiasm and knowledge has given me a completely new outlook on how I garden. I am so excited about transforming our glasshouse in the coming months. "
"He pulls apart a raised bed of greens to unearth a potato that formedlast summer but now is ready for a winter stew. Elsewhere, he unearths a celeriac, and inanother spot he pulls back the ground to reveal a blanched endive. He covers it again for safekeeping. It’s as if he is foraging in a wilderness of his own planting."
