Episode 12 - Interview with Daniel Bates from BS Honey

Welcome to Beekeeping Short and Sweet - A podcast for the inquisitive beekeeper with a short attention span, a beekeeper, in fact, just like me! In today's podcast I interview Dan Bates from BS Honey, a new beekeeping enterprise with a couple of really nice young chaps at the helm. BS Honey Bees UK was formed by business partners & Bee Farmers Daniel Bates & Tristan Sawczuk in Gloucester, set in the beautiful countryside of the Cotswold's. Since 2011 BS Honey Bees has strived to be the lead producer, distributor & importer of high-quality bees & queens. With hives based around a 15 mile radius of Brockworth, Gloucester. BS Honey Bees have a vast amount of colonies offering a huge variety of flora for the bees to forage on. Daniel & Tristan are childhood friends, working together in commercial Bee Keeping operations down under & in the UK. Both fully DASH accredited (Disease Accreditation Scheme for Honeybees), they began BS Honey Bees as a joint venture only aged 21 with a wealth of knowledge behind them proving that bee keeping is not just something restricted to age.
