Bees, Bees, Bees Galore -2010

Tour: Bees, Bees, Bees Galore

Saturday, June 19th, 10am-3pm, $35

This tour appreciates the pollinators that make it all happen! Our first stop is the sweeeet local business Beekind, owned by Doug and Katia Vincent, experienced beekeepers committed to protecting the health of honeybees. We’ll spend the morning discussing Beekeeping 101 and take an intimate look at what’s going on inside these locally-built bee boxes filled with happy humming honeybees.

 

Next, we’ll share a potluck lunch in Healdsburg at The Melissa Gardens, a honeybee sanctuary founded in 2007. Designed by Kate Frey, two acres of this 40-acre ranch are planted explicitly for the bees, with botanicals that offer year-round nectar and pollen sources for honeybees. Here honeybees are offered a sanctuary, insulated from stressors in a beautiful setting––we’ll undoubtedly come away equally serene and nourished!
