We are trying to do a little bit to help the amazing honey bee to survive and thrive.

💔What would *you* do if you were alone and had a heart attack?💔
1. Take a 2 minute break and read this:
Let's say it's 5:25 pm and you're driving home after an unusually hard day's work.
2. You are really tired and frustrated.
All of a sudden you have chest pains. They are starting to radiate in your arm and jaw. It feels like you’re being stabbed in the chest and heart. You're only a few miles away from the nearest hospital or home.
3. Unfortunately you don't know if you can make it..
4. Maybe you've taken CPR training, but the person running the course hasn't told you how to help yourself.
5. How do you survive a heart attack when you're alone when it happens? A person who is feeling weak and whose heart is beating hard has only about 10 SECONDS!! before losing consciousness.
6. But you can help yourself by coughing repeatedly and very strongly! Deep breaths before every cough. Coughing should be repeated every second until you arrive at the hospital or until your heart starts to beat normally.
7. Deep breathing gives oxygen to your lungs, and coughing movements boost the heart and blood circulation. Heart pressure also helps to restore a normal heartbeat. This is how cardiac arrest victims can make it to the hospital for the right treatment.
8. Cardiologists say if someone gets this message and passes it on to 10 people, we can expect to save at least one life.
9. Instead of posting memes, you're helping save lives by spreading this message.

Strange weather for our bee friends!!

Extreme weather today in Cheshire. Snow!!! But some of our hardy bees don't let that stop them even when the temperature is only 3 degrees

28/02/2021

The earliest we have seen our bees using our water station.
Still Feb and our bees gathering up water to take back to the hive. As well as ending water like all living creatures to survive they also use if for "air conditioning " to maintain a constant temperature and humidity.

All subscriptions get a welcome letter, a certificate saying they are helping, regular updates including photos of how their contribution has helped, a jar of wild raw honey from our apiary in the autumn .......and that's just the bronze package.
