In Issue 30

Dear friends

Bees for Development created much interest at its launch at the three day National Honey Show held in London last November. Our stand displayed low-technology beekeeping methods and some of the traditional techniques used in Africa and Asia.

Of course we were preaching to the converted. Beekeepers are well aware of the importance of maintaining good environment for bees, and of the benefits which beekeeping can bring. British and other European beekeepers attending the Show were keen to know more about the craft in other countries and of our work in providing information.

We were very pleased by the encouragement we received, with both individuals and beekeeping groups pledging their support for Bees for Development.
