Dear Friends,
Thank you for your interest in our Black Bee Project.
I have closed the Crowdfunder appeal early due to an unexpectedly poor
initial response, which looked like resulting in a failure to reach our
target and delays in getting started. I am investigating other potential
funding sources, and if you would still like to contribute, you can do so
from here -
www.britishblackbees.org
Just to clear up one point that has caused some questions: this project
will complement and build on the work of other Black Bee breeders, and is
in no way intended to interfere with or replace the excellent work being
done in Cornwall, Wales, Scotland, Ireland and elsewhere.
The project will definitely go ahead and we will scale it according to
available resources.
Many thanks for showing your support for this important work.
Best wishes
Philip Chandler
