Have you heard the bees serenading Father Christmas with carols as he delivers your presents?

Elizabeth, Martin and Nick from The Petersfield & District Beekeepers Association discuss whether Santa keeps bees...

Does he use the honey from his hives to make sweets and lollypops? How do bees keep warm in the snow? Do they really 'sing' carols during Advent?

With a useful list of present ideas for the people in your life that are interested in pollinators too.

For more information about Petersfield Beekeepers and training for new and more experienced beekeepers https://petersfieldbeekeepers.org.uk/.
