Past Workshop Topics
Beekeeping 101
Indoor or outdoor depending on the season. Intended for new beekeepers.
Queen Rearing for the Backyard Beekeeper
In this advanced 2 day workshop, participants are guided through the steps to raise their own quality queens. A mix of theory and hands-on practice, this course covers grafting and other ways to acquire queen cells, cell builder and finisher options, mating nucs, how to select breeder colonies, and tips to refine your techniques. It is geared at the backyard beekeeper with only a few colonies, and the goal is to empower everyone to raise queens adapted to their region.
Hive Tours
For adults or kids. Focused on showcasing the bees themselves. Tailored to beginners and folks who want to learn more about bees, but may not want a hive of their own just yet. We love doing interactive corporate tours with a honey tasting at the end!
Wild Bee Tours
This is a great one for kids groups (daycares, camps, etc)! We chat about wild bees, go on a bee safari, do a scavenger hunt or bee games, then make something, such as mason bee homes or seed bombs.
Mason Bee Workshop
Spring and Summer: Learning about keeping mason bees, making mason bee homes
Fall: Learning about cleaning cocoons, storing bees over the winter
Pollinator Hotel Workshop

Gardening for Bees Workshop

Other workshops may be available depending on your needs!
