Being part of a beekeeping beginner workshop is also heaps of fun.

You get to play with bees, getting right into a beehive, looking for thequeen, baby bees hatching, different types of bees and stages of bee development, how to identify what is going on inside the hive just to name a few things.
Every class holds new surprises for students and teachers alike.
