Susan Rudnicki from the Backwards Beekeepers will be on-hand to teach you the basics of beekeeping. She will also tell you who to call to safely and responsibly remove bees when an unwanted hive moves onto your property. Bees need all the help they can get these days! Learn to be a steward.
An observation hive of live bees will be a feature of this class.
Kids with parents are welcome! They will learn a love for nature and science – and it doesn’t seem like homework!
