Honey Extraction Workshop
October 2, 2022 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm
In New England, the foraging bees are busy collecting nectar, pollen, and water. Back home, the workers are evaporating the nectar into honey and storing it for the winter.
The queen is making babies as fast as she can, and the nurse bees are feeding the babies pollen for protein and honey for energy.
The beekeeper’s job is to provide a comfortable place for all of these activities. In return, the bees produce more than they need, and rewards the beekeeper with boxes full of pure honey.
Our job is to extract that honey from the honeycomb, bottle it, and enjoy the fruits of the bees’ labor.
In this class, we’ll do just that. We’ll learn about the lifecycle of bees and how all this happens, then we’ll go out and extract some honey from the honeycomb.
Price includes lunch.
