First it was Chickens Now it's Bees!

The people who brought chicken keeping to urbanites are spreading their wings (!) and are hoping to turn you and me into City Beekeepers.

Omlet the company who brought us the Eglu are also behind this new venture and launched a pretty cool futuristic looking hive recently they are calling the Beehaus.

According to the British Beekeeping Association, Beekeeping's popularity has risen from 3000 to 14,500 enthusiasts in the last 18 months alone.

Mr Bochica will be delighted by the news. Whilst at the Eco Village at the Kent agricultural show recently he spent many an hour in the Beekeeping info tent...we even have a Bee house in the garden now. Maybe now his Beekeeping dreams will become a reality! Show me the honey honey!
