SUNDAY, September 7, 2PM – HARVEST PARTY ― It’s the season to reap the harvest of our organic garden and hives! Our naturalists prepare a sampling of tasty treats from our garden, and you learn about the fascinating social network of honeybees, beekeeping, and how honey is harvested from our hives. Honey is extracted by our beekeepers H. Peet Foster and Greg Wechgelaer.
There is a free tasting of fresh honey-from-the-hives, and the newly harvested honey is available for purchase. In addition, enjoy our grounds and other fun activities.
