The amazing honey bee is an agriculturally important pollinator threatened by many human activities. Beekeeping—the art and science of managing honey bees—is a fascinating hobby, a fun backyard business and an extensive agro-industry.
This four-part introductory course is intended to encourage and support interested non-beekeepers. Novice beekeepers are also welcome! Over the course of the series, you'll learn about and experience the joy of beekeeping. Topics covered will include getting started, ordering and using equipment, costs, how to get your bees, where to place your bees, protective clothing, and more.
Your instructors—experienced members of the Southwestern Ohio Beekeepers Association (SWOBA)—will help you become a successful beekeeper. They are: Randy Morgan (Emeritus Curator-Insectarium, Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden); Phil Hucke (Certified Arborist); and Ray Babcock (Past President, Southwestern Ohio Beekeepers Association –SWOBA); Alaina Paszt Owner of Hive and Comb. Together, they have over 65 years of beekeeping experience!
