Beekeeping Beginner Class and Honey Tasting

The class will begin with a short lecture where you will learn why bees are so important to the local agriculture as well as how easy it can be to set-up and care for your very own beehive. The lecture will be followed by stepping outside to explore SF Honey & Pollen Co.'s very own urban apiary.

During the 3-hour Beginner Beekeeping Class, students will have the opportunity to: Suit up and look like a real beekeeper! All students are supplied a full bee suit prior to going into the apiary. Learn about the hive. Receive a hands-on education of the construction and inner workings of a beehive. Where's the honey? Go into an active hive to find honey, pollen, and the beloved Queen.
