Beekeeping for Beginners

By ugc on October 8, 2014 in

The Urban Beehive is offering a one-day beginners’ beekeeping course covering the principles of backyard, urban and rooftop beekeeping. The aim is for participants to gain a basic knowledge of European honeybees and the methods of keeping them in an urban environment. Weather permitting, attendees will help open a beehive on site and get to handle bees, light a smoker and perform other hands-on tasks.
