"Beekeeping for Beginners" class coming to Pekin February 7

A Community Posting by Kyla Spence 



EXCITING NEWS!  We are hosting our very first beginner beekeeping class!


How much does beekeeping really cost? Where do you even order honeybees? What do you mean fire is involved?


If you're interesting in beekeeping, this is the class for you! This 3-hour course provides insight into all the beginner tasks and basic skills to build a strong foundation for your apiary. We will cover ordering honeybees, setting up a perfect apiary layout, ensuring you have all the appropriate protective gear, and even practice lighting a smoker.


Admission is $10, though this can be used towards any purchase made on February 7th at Hi Honey Beekeeping Supplies. Class is limited to 10 participants to ensure there is ample time for questions and discussion, but we would love to add more classes if there's enough interest.
