About the event
One hobby that teaches me time and time again is beekeeping. If you are looking to be a life-long student, honey bees might be for you. In this introductory workshop, I’ll give a brief overview of how I run my apiary, what happens in a hive, and all the buzz about honey. This workshop will cover simple topics like: breakdown of hive basics (roles in the hive), an overview of woodenware (Langstroth Hives), tools, and personal protection equipment, and structure of a hive. I’ll go over what to look for in a frame (eggs, larvae, brood, nectar, honey, etc.) and a brief overview of honey extraction.
Please note, this is NOT a hands-on course; we will not be getting into the hives. It is an introductory workshop that will review the very basics of beekeeping, as a primer for more in depth classes. We will, of course, break bread together…
