Buckfastbiet
I min biodling använder jag mig av "birasen" Buckfast. Buckfast är en konstgjord ras genom systematisk kombination av olika biraser eller bistammar som genomgått sträng selektion. Buckfastbiet är ett avelsprojekt som pågått ända sedan Karl Kehrle (Broder Adam) började avelsarbetet 1916 på klostret Buckfast Abbey i sydvästra England, efter att en parasitsjukdom nästan tagit livet av alla bisamhällen i England. Broder Adams motto var; "Mera honung med mindre arbete". Hans avelsarbete fortsätts i Europa i hans fotspår och enligt hans principer.
Varför Buckfast? Varför inte, jag finner ingen orsak till att inte. Buckfastbiet kombinerar många bra egenskaper, såsom härdighet, svärmtröghet, lugn (bra temperament och kakfasthet), samlariver och byggiver. Svärmtröghet och lugn är två väldigt viktiga och tidsbesparande egenskaper som kommer till nytta både för hobby- och yrkesbiodlare. Buckfastbiet är i all dess enkelhet väldigt lättskött.
Min Buckfast härstammar från olika selekterade och stambokförda avelsdrottningar från Finland (Juhani Lunden), Danmark och Tyskland, dessutom Elgon bin från Sverige. Största delen av Buckfast-stambokförningen hittar ni HÄR!

NEDERGÅRD NATURE RETREAT
Tentsile accomodation
TENTSILE CAMPING
An overnight stay in a Tentsile tree tent offers the most relaxing, comfortable and unique camping experience. Protected from mosquitoes, you can enjoy the sunset and on a starry night you can float comfortably in your sleeping bag while watching the stars through the transparent tent fabric. If it is windy or raining you can cover the tent with the rain cover and sleep warm and dry rocked by the wind.
​
Nedergård Nature Retreat offers tentsile accommodation in Porvoo's inner archipelago in Kalax by the shores of Pikkupernajan lahti. Here you can enjoy beautiful nature, the sound of the waves and the peace and quiet. You can wander around in a peaceful rural setting or just relax on the cliff next to the tent. The campsite provides a barbecue area and a dry toilet.
Tentsile Stingray is a 3-person tent that is suitable for three adults or two adults with two small children. The tent is stretched between three trees and is a combination of tent and hammock. If you need more sleeping space, you can rent space for a regular tent.
