Congratulations! If you're reading this you are one step closer to meeting the bees.

Tips to Avoid a Sting

1. Wear close-toed shoes with socks, and long, loose pants (not leggings); light colors are best.

​

2. Avoid perfumes, colognes, strongly scented lotions, and shampoos.

​

3. Bring something to tie back long hair.

Any concerns? Let's talk about it!

Know Before You Go

  • We will be inviting you to put on bee suits and look into living colonies to get an up close and personal view of bees hard at work.

  • For those who are uncomfortable getting close to a hive, that’s great too! There is still plenty to see by standing back.

  • Bees are NEVER aggressive; they are only defensive. They do not want to sting anyone. The chances of getting stung on a tour are very low, but not zero. Just as when you walk outside – the chances of getting stung are low but not zero.
