WELCOME TO HEXHAM BEEKEEPERS’ BEE MART – HBKA MEMBERS ONLY

If you live in the North East of England, please, please only buy bees from the North East. If you import bees from other parts of the country you risk bringing in diseases with those bees, such as the Foulbroods. This can affect not just your bees but other beekeepers in the North East. There are legal requirements to report some diseases and your bees may have to be destroyed. Other diseases may cause bees to dwindle and die. We have been free of Foulbrood in the North East for some time and want to keep it that way.

In the active season we have many colonies of bees for sale bred by our members. There are no bees available just now in the winter season. Bees will be available next Spring / Summer. If you would like to register an interest to purchase bees next year please email Judith. beemart@hexhambeekeepers.co.uk.

You must be a FULL, COUNTRY or PARTNER member of Hexham Beekeepers Association to participate as buyer or seller (LOCAL or ASSOCIATE members are not eligible)

If you wish to sell bees or equipment, please send details to beemart@hexhambeekeepers.co.uk. You should include location, price and a description of max 25 words. If you would like members to contact you directly, add contact details. Alternatively, your name and contact details will be supplied to HBKA members on request.
