Honey Weekend
August 17 @ 10:00 am - 3:00 pm
An event every day that begins at 10:00 am, repeating until August 18, 2019
Create wings, antennae, a pollen cup and buzz around in a hive of six-sided cells and forage in the flowers. Get a buzzy kazoo and join in a parade among gorgeous gardens. Also meet local beekeepers, sample a delectable selection of local, artisanal honeys and see honey-extraction demonstrations. One of our annual faves.
