Meet The Bees

Have you ever wondered what’s inside the beehive? What the honeybees do and what’s so special about them? Take part in the exclusive bee-keeping experience with Honey Craft Beekeeper.

What will happen? You will be kitted with a beekeeping suit and gloves for the session. Take your own wellington boots or sturdy shoes with you. You will take part in a beekeeping inspection together with a beekeeper to find out more about bees! Yes! We will open the hive so you can meet the colony and if lucky to spot the Queen Bee!

Sessions must be pre-booked in advance. Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

ATTENTION! Each person who would like to attend needs to get a ticket!
