Urban Beekeeping Day at Wave Hill, Bronx
Saturday, March 08, 2008
Sat, Mar 8, 2008 at Wave Hill House, 9:30AM-4PM
Beehives exist in community gardens, backyards and on rooftops throughout New York City. New and existing threats to honeybees have resulted in fewer bees to pollinate garden and landscape plants and provide local honey. Share the pleasures and challenges of urban beekeeping with local beekeepers in this day-long event at Wave Hill House.
Full-day registration: $50 Member; $65 Non-member. Registration required; call 718.549.3200 x305. Bring lunch or purchase it in the Wave Hill Café.
One of our Club's beekeepers, Jim Fischer, will be a participant at the afternoon session, the Urban Beekeeping Forum.
