The inaugural meeting was held earlier this afternoon with about 80 beekeepers from all over Ireland in attendance.
Quite a few of those who made it over to the Stirling Centenary conference were there.
The main aim is to promote the conservation study and improvement of AMM throughout the island of Ireland.

Heartening to know the interest is there. Hope the initial enthusiasm continues.

Are they trying to hide behind the banner? :D

I'm assured that they are intending to breed from local (but not Amm) stocks, and will be buying additional commercial nucs that have a UK origin .... plus Buckfast queens for their association apiary.
How far from their breeding site is the association apiary? If they have a remote area it might work, bit to what end if they aren't wanting to replace current stocks with local bees?
