Sorting my bee equipment out ready for a day of harvesting and bee inspections and this one popped in to say hello!

I’ve had many tags to collect bee swarms over the past few days

I’m currently out of the country and not back until next Saturday.

If you believe you have a swarm and are in the Doncaster area please email

[email protected]

And one of the swarm team will be in touch

First swarm of the year collected and rehomed!

This is the third swarm on the same street I’ve picked up over the last 2 years

Must be the perfect place for a quick refuel!!

Thanks to Rachel & Neil for being honorary beekeepers for a day!

Proud moment earlier today!

I was approached and asked if I’d donate my books to City of Doncaster Archives ,where my collection will be preserved in the archives for future generations to see and enjoy!

🐝 The last 6 glass bees left! 🐝

That’s it… once they’re gone, they’re gone 👀

No restocks. No second chances. No “I’ll grab one next time”…

So get yourself down before they swarm and leave the shop 😬😳😂 Castlegate Cards Tickhill

Coming soon 👀 👀
🔽🔽🔽

Now the warm weather is coming. What could you do to help the bees??

Give them a little drink station!

Whether it’s in a bucket, a nice pot or a bowl. You can fill the bowl with water and this sits on the top, giving the bees a perfect spot to stop and have a well deserved drink!

Coming soon to Castlegate Cards Tickhill !!

It officially gets the Beardy stamp of approval!!
