SUMMARY:Discover the secret life of bees
DESCRIPTION:Cape honeybees are honoured workers on the Babylonstoren Farm – not only do they produce an abundance of honey for the breakfast table at Babel Restaurant\, but they also play a key role in pollinating many of our garden fruits\, herbs and vegetables. \nWe host our workshops during the warmer seasons\, when the garden is buzzing with Cape honeybees\, hard at work foraging for pollen and nectar. The workshop starts with a guided walk through the garden to explore the bees’ favourite spots\, from nectar-filled annual flowers to pollen-rich trees. We’ll then invite you to put on your beekeeping suit and discover a collection of diverse beehives – including the traditional woven skep\, the practical Langstroth with moveable frames\, and the much-talked-about flow hives. Our beekeeper\, Arné Stander\, will share the story of the indigenous Cape honeybee and explain the basics of beekeeping. \n**Please bring along your sun hat for the garden walk and closed shoes such as gumboots or wellies or high-ankle hiking boots for the practical session with beekeeping suits. \nSteaming coffee from the Farm Shop is served upon arrival.A refreshing lunch at the Greenhouse Restaurant is included.
