Private Beekeeping Lesson

Private lesson with one of our skilled beekeepers in a live hive of bees.

Duration:
1 hour max

Our hands-on Beekeeping Lesson is the fastest and most efficient way to gain the basic skills and knowledge to become a beekeeper. Come early and purchase protective gear if needed; rental gear is available. You will learn about beekeeping tools, hive equipment, and basic bee biology. As you work hives alongside our Bee Expert you will learn to assess and know what actions to take when working your bees. You can chat with your beekeeper to see where you are in your beekeeping journey, and get custom information and experiences to further your beekeeping skills and knowledge!
