Harrow BKA runs wax workshops, recently twice a year in January and July.
This is the schedule from a previous course, see the latest dates here.
Learn about beeswax as a product of the hive and how to produce products such as candles, soap, polish and cosmetics. There will 4 groups of people each taking turns in learning a number of techniques and producing wax products.
Teas and coffees will be available. Bring your own lunch. There won’t be a set lunch break - the workshops will vary slightly in length so you’ll have an opportunity to eat and to have a short break as we go.
