As the Southern Allotment site with its designated apiary area is still a few years away, the Portsmouth Beekeeping Association have set up a temporary apiary on site until they can move in to their permanent home. With the huge variety of wildflower banks and meadows, clover, and beautiful gardens on site, the bees will be spoilt for choice!

These frogs can be up to 17cm in size and their distinctive call can travel hundreds of metres. They are also known as the laughing frog because of
