See the inside of a bee hive. We will open up a hive and observe how young bees are raised, food is stored, and see the three casts of bees in the hive. You will be given a protective bee jacket to wear that has a bee veil attached for your face. You must wear closed toe shoes and long pants. Every precaution is being taken that you won't be stung. However, honey bees are live insects and not always predictable. Everyone will be asked to sign a waiver upon arrival. Please no one under the age of 10. Children between the ages of 10 and 15 must be accompanied by a guardian. Sign up is required.
