If you are interested in beekeeping or want to know what it
entails to be a beekeeper, Texas AgriLife Extension in Bexar County will be hosting a Beekeeping Basics program,
September 28- 29 2012. The course is meant for those
with very little to absolutely no experience with beekeeping. The idea is
to help those who have thought about starting a hive for honey production,
hobby, environmental stewardship, etc.
This is a great program; you will learn a lot about
beekeeping and bee biology. This in Bexar County's second program, and it is
highly recommended that you attend the field day on the 29th, as that
is where you will learn the most about the everyday beekeeping world. You
will get to touch a beehive, wear a beesuit, manipulate the hive, do an
inspection and really learn what a typical beekeepers day is all about.
September 28th is a classroom day, starting at 9AM and
ending at 3PM. Lunch and snacks will be provided. Cost is $50, made
out to the Bexar County Master Gardeners. The class tends to fill up very fast so sign up early if you are interested. Please see the following link for more information:
