Betterbee’s educational staff use observation hives full of live bees throughout the year to enchant, entertain, and educate beekeepers and non-beekeepers. Observation hives show the wonderful complexity of life in a bee hive to a human observer safely on the other side of a glass or plastic window. Do you want to use observation hives as a teaching tool? Or do you want to try to keep a bee colony inside your home, on a short-term or even a long-term basis? If so, this course is for you!

This in-person class at Betterbee headquarters in Greenwich, NY will include both a lecture and hands-on experience handling a few different types of observation hives, and discussion of how best to use them. Weather-permitting, we will also go into our teaching apiary to demonstrate how to set up an observation hive for later use.

Join us, as we learn to peer into the inner workings of a hive, and the secret lives of honey bees!
