Venue: Our home and apiary
The Bee Farm Tour & Honey Tasting will introduce you to the intensity of the bee colony, the power of the Queen and the fierce loyalty of her female subjects. A fun introduction to a bees life is followed by each guest stepping into a traditional bee suit, covered head to toe and participating in a personal “meet & greet” with the bees. Guests will go into the bee yard and inspect a hive with the beekeeper, hold a bee frame full of bees and experience the thrill of a Queen sighting! You will witness the carefully choreographed, precisely defined duties of each hive member. You will then be fully prepared to indulge in a delightful honey tasting to follow. Savor honey from the Killer Bees apiary which like wine, will be expertly paired with different foods. You will experience how each honey tastes different, and how each honey can be paired to fully complement different types of foods. Champagne of course pairs with all honeys! Finally, visit the honey processing house where you will pour your own souvenir bottle of Killer Bees Honey; a sweet gift provided by these fascinating and wonderous insects.
