BUFFALO, N.Y. — Have you ever been interested in learning what it is like to be a beekeeper? Hahn's Honeybee Haven is offering people the opportunity to learn just that on August 26 from 9am-11am.
They have announced that there are still some spots open for the beginner's beekeeping course at the Cornell Cooperative Extension at the Niagara County Fairgrounds, and encourage anyone interested to register for the class.
Hahn's began rescuing honey bees in 2016, and rescues them from the cut out of walls, trees, and recovers swarms from busy locations.
The beekeeping group is looking to help further educate the community, and topics in the class will include
- Overwintering in WNY
- Fall mite checks and treatment options
- Honey bee diseases, pests, and pathogens
The class will begin at 9am with the beginners session, and be followed by the overwintering session. They encourage people to register in advance as class sizes are limited. Cost for the class is $20.
This class will be taught by Tara Hahn, who is the NY State Delegate of the American Beekeeping Federation and operates the bee rescue located in Niagara County, Hahn's Honeybee Haven.
