Bees for Beginners: A Hands-Off Class

Hermann Park Conservancy’s FREE garden class series in the McGovern Centennial Gardens continues with a session on all things bees! Bees play an integral part of our food and ecological systems by providing necessary pollination to keep crops flourishing. But bees are becoming more and more at risk for extinction, also putting fruits, veggies, nuts and flowering plants that depend on the bees at risk. Join Hermann Park Conservancy as area “Bee Lady”, Shelley Rice, shares the basics of beekeeping. Shelley has been professionally into bees since the 2007 and is area chef’s “Go To Gal” for bee installation and care. Shelley also takes care of their beloved McGovern Centennial Garden’s hive and they know that she loves her bees!
