Vicky provided us such a wonderful experience in her apiary. She’s extremely personable and knowledgeable. She’s very gentle with her bees and quite detailed with her approach to allowing folks to experience the wonderful world of the honeybee! It’s quite safe for those who might be a bit on the squeamish side. She gave everyone lots of useful facts and details to allow us a basic understanding of the world of the bee and the beekeeper. At the end we each got a jar of lovely honey to take home with us. All in all an experience well worth the effort!

I loved this experience— it was fun to be kitted out in proper beekeeping attire and Vicky was a wonderful facilitator. I learned a lot about the behaviour and life cycle of bees, as well as the process of caring for urban hives. A jar of local honey at the end was the cherry on top! Highly recommend.
