EASY BUZZING BEE COURSE – taking place monthly in Midrand!! RSVP Now!

Beekeeping can be fun. Some people do it for leisure and free honey and others do it professionally. Either way, it’s still a great way to get outdoors, meet people and get closer to nature. Our beekeeping course includes an estimated 90 minutes of inspecting a live hive.

We’ve been in beekeeping for over 15 years and we still use our original set of bee suits we made back then today! We recently held our “Easy Buzzing Bee Course” this weekend and half of the learners rented bee suits for the day’s training. They happen to use our old faithful full overall bee suits with detachable veil for the 90-min practical session at a LIVE demo at the beehive!
