Learn about the interconnected nature of bees and flowers in this intimate hands-on Bee Experience with Comvita beekeeper, Noelani Waters.
In this session, you will learn how bees live as superorganisms, make honey, and have evolved with flowers over millennia. Noe will talk through the basics of a beehive and open a colony to see their magic firsthand. A frame of bees will be passed around the participants to experience an up-close view of these special and critical pollinators. Questions are welcome! Each participant will take home a pack of bee-friendly seeds and learn how they can play a part in helping bees to thrive in their communities.
