To bee or not to bee... If that’s your burning question, get the answer in this 1-day introductory course with experienced educator and beekeeper, Dr. Andrew Byers. Learn about these important, hard-working pollinating insects, which are responsible for the equivalent of one of our daily meals and are also sentinels which reflect the health of the environment. You'll be introduced to the world of beekeeping in this fun, hands-on class. By the end of the day, you’ll understand basic aspects of bee biology, husbandry and the equipment necessary for beekeeping. You'll come away well armed on whether beekeeping is for you! You will assemble two beehive frames, which you can keep if you wish. A small sample of local wildflower honey is provided and you take part in a honey appreciation exercise (samples provided). All tools and materials will be supplied.
