Here in Westport there were a small number of beekeepers who kept beehives. In autumn 2009 we decided to form a Beekeepers Club for the first time in Westport, it is affiliated with the Federation of Irish Beekeepers since February 2010. We are very keen to attract new members and hope to expand the numbers in the coming years. If you are interested in beekeeping or thinking of joining our club, please come along to any of our meetings.
