We are happy to welcome school field trips, preschools, day camps, seniors groups and special interest groups to learn about bees and mead at the farm!
Our facilities are indoors and can accommodate groups of 10-55 people to be booked in advance.
We tailor our presentations to be appropriate for all ages, and take curriculum content into consideration with a range of activities for kids. “Bee” sure to leave extra time to visit our farm store for honey products and gifts, and to enjoy our picnic area!
