Join us for a relaxed and informative evening exploring the fascinating world of bees.

We’ll begin with a gentle tour of the garden, observing pollinators in their natural habitat (looking, not touching!) while discussing their vital role in supporting life on Earth—and how we can all help protect them. You’ll also learn about the honeybee life cycle, the different members of the hive, and the important jobs they each perform. 

Afterwards, you’ll have the opportunity to suit up in full beekeeping gear and take a guided look inside one of our hives. We’ll search for the queen, look for brood and honey stores, and discover the remarkable complexity of life inside the colony.

Sessions are £25 per person.
