THE atmosphere was buzzing at one York park – when it hosted an event all about bees.

St Nicholas Fields Environment Centre hosted the workshop on Saturday.

Visitors were able to make beehives, learn about the insects from experts from the National Bee Unit, and get advice on how to encourage bees into their gardens.

There was also honey-tasting.
