Grailville Retreat & Program Center (Beekeeping Workshop)

Honeybees produce wonderful tasting honey and are important pollinators for over 30% of our food supply!  Learn how to relate to and care for bees as well as about their importance in the environment.

If weather permits, we will look into one of Grailville’s hives to see them in action.  Led by Marion Ackman, who has been beekeeping for 47 years and Andrew Kartal, State Inspector with 30 years beekeeping experience.  This Beekeeping Workshop is part of Grailville’s 2010 Good Earth/Good Eats Program, led by local food producers and artisans to help us experience the connections between people, the earth and the food we eat.
