A Sensory Honey Tasting: Explore a flight of local and global honeys using all five senses. You’ll learn to identify the depth and specific flavor notes of high-quality honey, just like a wine tasting. ?? Into the Bee Yard: Suit up in a professional bee suit for a guided hive inspection. You'll observe the inner workings of a live colony and see the queen and her workers in action. ??
