BBKA Information Leaflets
A collection of free leaflets to download produced by the British Beekeepers' Association. The BBKA has over the years published many information leaflets to help their members and often to meet specific needs at the time. They have been written by members of the Executive and other well- respected beekeepers and have been peer reviewed within the BBKA.
This compilation is a collection of leaflets to provide relevant help to beekeepers today. Some are revisions of the originals and some have been produced to meet further perceived needs. The revised beekeepers leaflets are denoted by the prefix B in the numbering system. The leaflets aim to provide information and guidance for quick reference on immediate problems some of which are not covered in the texts.
On behalf of the BBKA I would like to thank all those members both past and present that have contributed their time and knowledge to the production of all of the BBKA information leaflets.
