Celebrate the success of the beekeeping season with a honey harvest workshop! Join local beekeeper Allison to learn how bees collect nectar from flowers and turn it into honey and then take part in every step of a honey extraction, from uncapping the frames, to spinning the honey out of the combs and finally jarring and labeling your 'liquid gold' to take home. We'll also learn how to decipher the nuances of honey with a tasting wheel and explore why honeys differ in color, texture and taste. A unique, hands-on activity for all ages!
