🐝 Buzz on over for our Beekeeping Class!
Led by a local beekeeper, this family-friendly lesson will introduce kids (and parents!) to the fascinating world of bees—without the live stingers.

From the history of beekeeping to the science of bee communication, this class is packed with sweet knowledge and a few un-bee-lievably bad puns. Perfect for curious kids and families who want to learn more about our pollinator pals!
