Intro to Honey Bees and Native Bees

  • The Link Ginninderry, 1 McClymont Way Strathnairn, ACT 2601 Australia (map)

Bees live in amazingly intricate, complex communities. While European bees are kept for their delicious honey, Canberra also boasts plenty of native bees that do important work as pollinators. Learn about both native bees and honey bees, how to create welcoming habitat for them in your backyard and what is involved in becoming a backyard beekeeper.

This workshop is perfect for anyone who wants to know more about bees, and as a first introduction for people thinking about getting in to beekeeping.
