The honeybee faces many affronts to its immune system in these days of Varroa mites and climate destabilization. The so-called “Colony Collapse Disorder” now facing  beekeepers makes it all the more imperative that local beekeepers, farmers, gardeners and homeowners learn healthy ways to assist the honey bee and other pollinators. Following this class, participants are welcome to stay to meet and discuss beekeeping with others. Light refreshments will be provided. Members: $5 Non-members: $10.

Beeswax is a unique substance produced within the body of the honeybee. This workshop will cover its origins to its human uses for health and healing, everyday practical use, and artistic expression. We will explore the origins of beeswax within the hive, its properties, how the bees use it, and how we can benefit from this incredibly useful substance.  Space is limited! Members: $25 Non-members: $35.
