Beekeeping Basics
About this Event
Join us for an introduction to beekeeping.
The session begins with a 30-minute classroom lesson covering essential concepts, followed by guide, hands-on practice in the apiary.
Participants will have the opportunity to wear protective gear and observe the bees at their own comfort level, whether from a distance or up close.
