About this Event
Honey bees are incredible creatures that have a unique relationship with humans. We rely on them for pollination, honey, and so much more!
Order lunch and join Convivium Farm Manager AJ Shultz for this one-hour Lunch & Learn. AJ will share his fascination with honey bees, detailing how they function within the hive, create queens, clean their space, and much more!
Note: This class is not a beekeeping class, but rather an exploration of honey bees.
This event is free! No registration required – just show up!
