My father, who kept bees for most of his life, passed away recently. He would like us to scatter his ashes amongst the bees. I have some questions which I hope someone will be able to help me with:
1. How close to the beehive would it be safe/sensible to scatter the ashes?
2. Is there a good time of year to do this?
3. Is there any chance we could contaminate the honey?
4. Are there any laws preventing us doing this?
5. Has anyone else had any experience of doing this?
Thank you in advance for your advice.
