Welcome to RBKA
We are a friendly and supportive group of hobbyist beekeepers based in and around Rotherham, South Yorkshire
We would like to invite anybody interested in Beekeeping to come along to one of our meetings and see what beekeeping is all about. We also run a beginner's course each year for aspiring beekeepers
On this website you will find a variety of resources for beekeepers, news and information about upcoming local beekeeping events and association meetings
