Taken in Bee Urban
"Bee Urban is a beekeeping and environmental education community project based in Kennington Park. In 2015 we were forced to move to our new site behind the café in the park, with plant and materials from the old site at the parker keeper's lodge. On the new site we have raised growing beds, fruit trees, soft fruit, nectar-rich plants, herbs and flowers.
Regular volunteers from the local community maintain the site two days a week.
We provide outreach work across south London and the building is available as a space for groups, where we do gardening, ecology and beekeeping.
All planting has been designed to be nectar-rich according to Royal Horticultural Society and British Beekeepers Association guidance. We also have an anaerobic digester and solar water heater. Volunteering opportunities at Bee Urban include gardening, beekeeping, construction/carpentry, cob-oven construction, cooking, candle-making, paper-making and more."
