BEEKEEPING
Teaching Beekeeping In Woodward, Iowa
If nothing else, know that beekeeping is the class I have taught most extensively, and one that I have the most experience with--three generations worth! My Grandfather was a European beekeeper after WWII, and era that had not seen pesticides, so ALL of this work is organic. For more see: www.bronxbees.com
You will learn pure, in all of old fashioned, organic methods in each beekeeping class I teach. These are the same methods that have been recognized by Queen Of The Sun, which featured Bronx Bees, our New York apiary, and also Slow Money NYC, which recognizes superior foodstuffs that utilize green and ethical techniques to raising food.
***PLEASE NOTE: If you are attending these class we highly recommend wearing a bee suit of some sort, or light colored clothing with long sleeves, long pants tucked into shoes and ABSOLUTELY please at least WEAR EYE PROTECTION (goggles, etc) if you cannot wear a suit!
