Are you interested in learning more about bees? This is your chance! We will be hosting in-person, hands-on beekeeping workshops throughout the year and would love to learn with you. The GRuB apiary is a teaching site with different types of hives: 2 traditional Langstroth Hives, 1 HiveiQ, and 2 Top Bar Hives. Each hive has its own special techniques and accessibilities, so folks can try out which hive suits them best! We have our first workshop coming up next Sunday, May 18th from 10 am-12 pm at the GRuB farm. All levels of experience welcome! Event registration FREE for Veterans and their families; $15 for community members/non-Veterans. No one turned away for lack of funds.
