Dingle Food Festival 2026 Workshop: Beekeeping

Tadhg Leahy has kept bees for 16yrs, starting with a small nucleus (starter hive). 

He now keeps between 20 & 25 colonies in different locations west of Dingle where the bees forage whitethorn, blackthorn, fuchsia, blackberry and heather.

Weather permitting he will do an apiary visit this year after the workshop and anyone interested will need to bring a bee suit and gloves for the optional visit.
