What’s the buzz all about? Come learn about how the honeybee lives, and the respectful ways of keeping them, 6:30 p.m. March 21 at the Crestview Public Library.
All over America, city beekeepers are keeping a few honeybee hives in their backyards. Learn what is involved: how, when, where and what you will need to establish a hive.
If you’re thinking about starting a beehive or are just curious about what’s involved with keeping bees, then this is a great introductory presentation for you. This short presentation is designed for absolute beginners so no prior knowledge is required. There will be no hands-on beekeeping, so protective clothing and bravery will not be necessary.
Attendees will be able to taste a variety of local honeys and buy some, if they like.
The Family Library Time event lasts about 45 minutes and is designed for adults and children 4 years old and up. Registration is not required for this free event.
Heather Nitzel is the Crestview Public Library's youth services librarian.
