Managing honeybees can be a very rewarding enterprise and a profitable sideline.  Some keep bees for the honey they produce while others for pollination they provide.

Our goal is to provide new beekeepers with the knowledge and information to help them achieve a successful start. Topics include bee biology, basic equipment, and keeping bees healthy, to name a few, and participants are encouraged to ask questions as they arise throughout the workshop. See the registration brochure for a complete schedule. NOTE: The same information will be presented at both the Wexford and Greensburg sites.

If you've been thinking about keeping bees but you're not sure how to get started, this is the workshop for you! We hope you'll share this information with others you know who are interested in keeping bees and encourage them to attend!
