Think Like a Bee: An Evening with Honey Bee Expert Dr. Larry Connor

Join us for a special evening with Dr. Larry Connor, nationally recognized honey bee expert, author, researcher, and educator, as he presents “Think Like a Bee.”
Whether you’re an experienced beekeeper, just getting started, or simply fascinated by honey bees, this presentation will offer a deeper look at the colony from the bees’ perspective — how they grow, respond to changing conditions, and make the decisions that help them survive.
Dr. Connor has spent decades teaching and writing about honey bees and beekeeping, and we’re excited to bring him to Richmond for an evening of learning, conversation, and plenty of bee talk.
