Beekeeping Experiences
There are infinite ways to observe the worldâone of them is through a beekeeping veil, reaching into a box full of tens of thousands honey bees.
Our beekeeping experiences make for an adventurous date activity, enriching company outing, fascinating classroom field trip, or a necessary introduction to beekeeping as a hobby.
In 90 minutes or more, our experiences cover:
Pollination and pollinating insects
The origin of honey bees and their relationship with humans
Tools and techniques of the beekeeping trade
Life cycle, behavior, and colony dynamics of honey bees
Hive products, including a fresh honey sample
The greater world of other bees and their habitats
And anything else to address your goals
We have 2 teaching locations:
The Farm
Located on the southwest edge of Denver in Lakewood, Colorado, our main apiary is positioned on an 11-acre Certified Naturally Grown private family farm. This location is ideal for those who appreciate an accessible serene city escape. The farm is so quiet and brimming with wildlife that itâs hard to believe the city is just a few miles away.
The Brewery
Located at Breckenridge Brewery in Littleton, Colorado are Beevis and Buzzhead, the two hives sponsored and hosted by the brewery. This location is ideal for those looking for a day full of funâthe Colorado way. The brewery boasts an incredible beer garden with lawn games, a food truck, and craft beer on tapâthe perfect way to end a beekeeping experience.

*Beekeeping is an incredibly therapeutic hobby. It also requires many expensive resources, making it inaccessible to many. We believe we have a responsibility to share beekeeping experiences with everyone, regardless of wealth. If cost is limiting your access to our services, please indicate in your reservation request.
âChristine, was an absolute pleasure learning from. I attended a beekeeping experience on a beautiful farm. Her apiary is very well attended too, you know she loves everything about bees.
She was very knowledgeable and loves teaching. I learned so much in the two hours there. We got up close and personal with the bees, very interactive and learned the important factors to beekeeping. I look forward to her guidance and knowledge when I am ready to start my own apiary! I highly recommend Christine for her services.â
