About
During this meeting we will visit our three hives to monitor their health as populations increase with the coming spring. We learn about sustainable beekeeping practices, what to look for and do while taking care of bees. People who show up to this meeting will have to wear bee-safe clothing such as close-toed shoes, and preferably pants, though we have full suits and half suits along with gloves provided. Participants will also have to sign a safety waiver which accepts the possibility of bee stings.

The Mission of The Beekeeping Club is to educate students about bees and beekeeping through hands-on experience and lectures, about harvesting raw products from them in sustainable ways, and about turning those raw products into a variety of goods. The Beekeeping Club seeks to offer anyone with a curiosity or passion for bees and beekeeping the ability to participate in beekeeping regardless of their skill level or prior experience and to guide them in learning more about bees and the role beekeeping plays in a sustainable world.
