Have you ever wanted to learn about beekeeping? Well, here is a great opportunity to do just that. This four-part very hands-on program will let you experience the fascinating world of the honey bees. You will learn about their hives, sustainable beekeeping, life cycle of bees, products produced by a hive and install a new colony in their new home. Each session will focus on a different aspect of beekeeping while providing participants with hand-on experiences with bees, hives, and hive production.

This 4 part program for youth ages 11-18 is at the N.C. Cooperative Extension, Currituck County Center, 120 Community Way, Barco NC, 27917 on March 31, April 11, April 14 and May 5 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. We will be working with and around bees and their hives during all sessions and we will provide appropriate safety gear during the classes. Full enrollment in 4-HOnline is required for all participants. There is no cost for this program, but space is limited. 

Register online with Eventbrite. After you complete your eventbrite registration, you will need to register your youth through the 4-H Online site. It is easy and only takes a few minutes. Please call us at (252) 232-2261 and we will guide you through the process if you have any problems.
