ABOUT HONEY BEES

BIBBA encourages the conservation and improvement of native honey bees. For beekeepers in northern Europe it is known that the native sub-species Apis mellifera mellifera is the honey bee most adapted to the climate and environment. This honey bee is usually described as 'dark', 'brown' or 'black'. Here is a selection of articles and resources written by BIBBA members and contributors.
