This documentary is a beautiful film to watch pre-Christmas. It shows both old and new styles of bee-keeping – and shows them with stunning photography, giving amazing insight into the detailed activities of bees and hives. It leaves us to draw our own conclusions about the widely reported risks to bee-population survival, concentrating mostly on the factual and the immediate.
Our final Transition Towns Event for 2018 will be at the Alicetown Community Centre followed by a discussion and a cup of tea.
