Get ready for two full days of hands-on learning, expert speakers, and buzzing conversations! Whether you’re brand-new to beekeeping or a seasoned beekeeper, the Bee College schedule is designed to give you choices that fit your interests.
Meet the characters of In the Valley Hive. You will be able to make a variety of puppets come alive as you tell their story and showcase their personalities, as they interact to tell the important story of the role honeybees and pollinators play, as well as the plants, animals, and people supporting them.
Learn about the equipment and tools needed for beekeeping, how and when to use them, how to put on a bee suit, and how to navigate working through a Langstroth hive.
Create your own personal masterpiece by applying layers of beeswax and decorative paper and/or flowers to a canvas. Wear clothes that may get messy!
Plan and prepare a short skit that will be highlighted as part of the Evening Reception.
Make your own beeswax lotion bar! Learn more about how beeswax and honey can be used in cosmetics and skin care.
Learn more about what to look for during a hive inspection. Round out the day by putting all of the skills and knowledge gained together for a round of BINGO.
