Did you know National Honey Bee Day is on Aug. 17? What better way to celebrate than by learning about bees at the Edison and Ford Winter Estates?
The day will include a live honey-extraction demonstration, honeybee lecture and a presentation on Florida-native plants for pollinators. Best of all, there will be a local honey tasting, and if you love the taste, you can buy some to take home.
There will be a question-and-answer section with bee inspector Freddy Howard and informational tables from Florida Native Plant Society, Florida State Beekeepers Association and Solitary Bee Homes.
