Learn all the basics needed to start keeping bees. This includes what to expect, how to put together equipment, how to get bees in your hive, finding the queen, feeding, what to look for after the bees are installed, and seasonal chores. There will be hands-on exercise in the field. All participants are required to bring their own bee suit. No extra suits will be available at the class.
