Beekeeping: Honey Harvesting Class

If you have attended our Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced Intermediate Beekeeping classes, then you are invited to join us on-site at Ozarka in Hawkins, TX to experience our harvesting honey class. We are sorry for the late notice of this class. We had a tough time finding a location that was 'honey ready' that we could host at and just received the approval from Ozarka this morning. This is our last class of the season! Daniel Lennon will lead this class and will cover everything you need to know about harvesting honey all the way to the bottling honey stage. This class will be held at the “Ranch House” at Ozarka in Hawkins, TX. Ozarka address: 3265 S FM 2869 Hawkins, TX 75765 Proper PPE (bee suits and gloves) are required for this class for your safety as we will be hands-on with the hives. No exceptions!! **Daniel Lennon’s phone number in case you need to reach him for the class 903-539-3437.**Please RSVP to this event by pre-paying. This is a very limited guest list for this hands-on class. This will ensure that your spot is reserved and gives us a proper headcount for the class. See you soon!
