Making Mistakes That Cost Time, Money & Effort?
Beekeeping isn't easy. There are SO many variables and lots of different ways of managing your bees. It's easy to get confused and make mistakes that cost you time, money and effort.
When you join my YouTube membership page, you get access to a simple, effective beekeeping methodology with unlimited support via the comment reply function!
Local bee mentors are great if you can get one, but sometimes they are slow to reply or just become non-respondent. They might give you an answer when it's too late to take action.
Advice At The Right Time
My YouTube channel members get simple, effective advice on how to manage their bees at the right time of the year, or whenever they ask for it!
My VIP member level gives you exclusive access to my beekeeping calendar. I will film the advice and give you the heads up on what actions to take BEFORE you experience this with your bees, ensuring you are armed with the information you need to make the correct decisions.
But it gets EVEN BETTER. I will personally respond to ALL comments made by channel members on any video. Got a query about disease? Worried your bees are about to swarm? Think its time to treat for varroa? Just drop me a comment on ANY video and I will personally respond to you as soon as practically possible! Unlimited support whenever you need it for anyone with a channel member badge!

Behind The Scenes
In 2024, I started filming exclusive video content for VIP channel members. These videos are never shown to the general public on YouTube, so it means I can talk candidly about my beekeeping experiences and show you what really works, letting you in some of the very best tips and tricks of the trade.
I provide exclusive content members with insights into the most cost effective methods to grow your beekeeping hobby into a business. Talk about simple, effective strategies to increase your number of colonies. Give you rough cut footage of my bee farming inspections, giving you visibility and insights into the daily life of a bee farmer.
I've learnt my trade through trial and error but now I am giving you the opportunity to sidestep the costly mistakes and errors that scuppered my early attempts at growing my business. With an expert, online mentor in your corner, I can help you get the very best out of your bees and make beekeeping an enjoyable and profitable experience for all.
The VIP channel membership is timely, giving tutorials on what you need to be doing now! Especially valuable to anyone new to beekeeping. Practical and above all easy to understand with fantastic close ups of any manipulation being explained.

Walker Bee Honey
I would highly recommend becoming a member of black mountain honey .
He is very good at teaching and answers the questions you put to him very quickly .
I have learnt a lot from Laurence and keep learning from his videos , live at the hive, and his live broadcasts from his home where he covers subjects that are current through beekeepers calendar , and answers members questions , and uses white board to explain his answers.
I would highly recommend his mentor service .
Ben Berlyne
Been a member for over a year and your member videos have been really helpful and they've improved my beekeeping. I would highly recommend anyone to become a channel member, especially if you just started beekeeping.
Tom
Love being a member and find the videos informative and helpful. Become a member get early live streams you wont regret it. Lawrence is very knowledgeable and very modest, always gets back to you quickly with any questions as well.

The Black Mountain Honey Early Access membership is great for new beekeepers and experienced beekeepers as Laurence releases beekeeping tips related to the season and learn what the bees are doing each season without opening your own colony risking killing the queen or robbing. See behind the scenes what it takes to be a beekeeper from honey labels to varroa treatment.

Worth every penny, I'm not tight I'm cash conscious so for me to pay a small monthly subscription and keep paying it I must feel it's value for money. If I ask a question, it's answered personally in mins. And the videos are so on time for what you should be doing and when you never miss a trick. Also a great reminder to add treatment or remove. My advice is just try it for 3 months and make up your own mind.
Cub Rider
Love the early access, it means the content is relevant to the time of year. I watched lots of Laurence's videos before starting bee keeping this year. I felt so much more confident with the back up of the videos. The membership is a fairly new thing for me, i wish I'd done it sooner! Love the short reminders from the car, and the behind the scenes content. The live streams are brilliant, its great to see so many joining in, and the help available from others on the discord is amazing. All in all, 11 out of 10 for me❤
Lynette Blackman
I’m a newbie at beekeeping and getting my bees next year from you. I’ve now watched nearly all your YouTube videos and I have learnt sooooo much already, you’ve given me a huge amount of confidence, before I’ve even started! The emails I’ve sent were answered really quickly. Subscribing to your channel is the best thing I’ve done and will definitely stay with you for at least another year or maybe more! Thank you Lawrence! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Vanessa Hawkins
I find the near real time apiary content really valuable, the advert free bit is a bonus, would I recommend channel membership? 💯 %
Jay
Definitely ’No Nonsense’and ‘Hands On’ bee keeping. Example and advice, comparable to Richard Noel and Bob Binnie. Look no further!
The seasonal Let’s Talk Bees online Q&A, the content is live, current and up to date. Absolute bonus!

Maybe this is a little childish but I do like the feeling that I'm in the club :)

Absolutely love Black Mountain Honey. The membership is affordable and the content very informative. The members only content give an extra glimpse into the world of the apiary and beekeeping. As a relatively new beekeeper of 2 years I have learned so much. Thank you Laurence.
