- Honey Tasting – A free sample of five different honeys, with an optional mead flight available for purchase for those interested.
- Educational Talk – We’ll dive into how bees make honey, its chemistry, ancient medicinal uses, the importance of ethical beekeeping, and how honey reflects its terroir, much like wine.
