We are delighted to welcome Rika Shinkai, Maximilian Spiegelberg and Christoph D.D. Rupprecht who will be discussing the ecology of Japanese honey bees compared with Western honey bees, the nectar plants, Japanese beekeeping history and a variety of modern beekeeping practices. They will conclude by showcasing recent citizen engagements in creating bee friendly cities through honey bee projects.

Young Beekeeper Photo Competition
At the 2022 Royal Highland Show we plan to have a display in our honey tent of photographs by our young beekeepers showcasing My Beekeeping Highlights, 2021.
We would love our young beekeepers to submit 3 photographs which show them beekeeping this year, along with an explanation of what they are doing or seeing.

The Scottish Beekeepers' Association is supported by Paraffle Embroidery, who have created several Bee embroidery kits for beginners.
The Bee design is available as an embroidery hoop, tote bag, cushion, or banner, and all kits are plastic free and carbon neutral.
A portion of the proceeds from each kit will be donated to the Scottish Beekeepers Association.
We are truly grateful to Paraffle for this most generous support.
