Nikki Potgieter

Membership Officer

membership@beekeepers.asn.au

I have been a member of the ABA since December 2021 after purchasing my first Flow Hive. I grew up in South Africa and have always had a love of nature, animals and the environment. Beekeeping has ignited a new passion and has led to a greater love and appreciation of my garden, including the native pollinators I previously overlooked. It is not too surprising that my backyard apiary has now expanded and includes different hive styles. I am currently the Membership Officer and Apiary Officer for the Macarthur Beekeepers Association.
