“Bee” Creative with Wildsight Invermere as we join forces with Black Star Studios, and Upper Ranch Apiary for a child-centered workshop all about bees.
Visit the historical Upper Ranch and discover the world of the honey bees. Beekeeper Rick Tegart will guide you through assembly of a beehive, learning how honey bee colonies produce honey and observing honey bees at work. Dianna Tegart will teach you about the production and refining of beeswax and then you will make a beeswax tea light candle. Black Star Studios will lead you in making a beautiful bee craft to take home. There will also be an opportunity for honey tasting. See, hear, taste, smell and touch! And Bee Creative!
