Raising Honeybees in the Suburbs

After taking a few entomology classes at the University of Minnesota. I discovered with fascination the world of insects, especially honey bees. It will be my seventh year as a beekeeper and I am sure a new adventure as well.

Last 2 Beekeeping Classes in Eden Prairie for the Season!




Backyard Beekeeping I class is  starting next week: April 15. Then in May the second part Backyard Beekeeping II will take place on May 6th ; both classes are offered in Eden Prairie, MN. I will be teaching those 2 classes, the last one of the season. Many students already took them and will be keeping honey bees.  It is always a joy for me to see new students so enthusiastic about learning something different...Beekeeping! Some people take my class just to be informed, others because they are seriously considering keeping bees as a new hobby.
