This class is taught at the Landmark Park Teaching Apiary.
(Weather permitting – Beekeeping protective gear required!)
We will be working with live colonies, so beekeeping protective gear (at least a veil) will be required for all participants. We will meet at Landmark Park outside the Farm Museum then go over to the apiary. We’ll put on protective gear, light smokers, and inspect the hives, emphasizing proper hive working procedure. We’ll evaluate the colonies, find the three types of bees, and probably find a few unwelcome pests. We may even find and catch a swarm.
