The bees need our help and this weekend Gardeners’ Corner with David Maxwell will explore how we can all make our outside space a haven for them. David gets up close and personal with the Irish black honeybee on the Ards peninsula where Valentine Hodges has around 100 hives. He’s also off to Hillsborough which is holding a Honey fair this weekend. Also on the programme, David chats to organic grower Klaus Laitenberger about ripening those green tomatoes and he’ll be joined by Cherry Townsend and Neil Porteous to answer listeners questions including suggestions for small trees and the remedy for an unhappy hollyhock. You can get in touch with the programme anytime by email - [email protected]
