HONEY BEE PROGRAM

If I were a Honey Bee, how many eyes would I have? 

How would I breathe? 

Where would I carry pollen? 

How would I communicate with my hive mates?

Information

Meet a Friends’ beekeeper to investigate these and other fascinating aspects of Honey Bee life.  Then help the beekeeper open a hive and wonder anew as you observe the bees at work.  Beekeeping suits, veils and gloves provided.
