Bee a Part of the Buzz! Come to our Jr Beekeeper Program

Please join us for our one-day Junior Beekeeper Program this spring and summer, we would love to have your children and students attend.

The programs will be held on the following days:

• Saturday, April 25th in Dunwoody
• Sunday, June 7th in Alpharetta

Time: 10 am - 3 pm (approx.)

Cost: $25 per child.

The children (ages 6-13*) are welcome to participate in a live beehive inspection**, which includes “suiting up” with veil, bee suit, gloves, etc., a creative activity, watching a slideshow presentation about honey bees, helping with honey extraction, honey tasting, show and tell, etc.

The children will also receive a certificate of participation and a small jar of local honey, as well as other goodies, to take home.

We can cater our 1-day programs to suit your organization, class, or scout troop. If you have 10 or more children wishing to participate, we can schedule a Program date exclusively for them, if necessary. Please contact us for more information!

*Children under the age of 9 must have a parent or guardian present at all times. The facilities will have a kitchen and restroom facilities, but children should bring their lunch, and plenty to drink. (We will have extra water.) All attendees must sign a standard Release/Waiver form.

**All activities will be supervised by Metro Atlanta Beekeepers Association members, and safety clothing (bee suits, gloves and veils) will be provided.
