Courses
From the Classroom to the Field:
We are uniquely positioned to provide beekeeping education and support on multiple levels. It begins with hands-on introductory beekeeping for the novice, followed by consulting and advanced training for intermediate and experienced beekeepers. Unique to Long Island, we also offer hive management services for estates, farms, and vineyards—ideal for those who are time-pressed yet deeply committed to environmental stewardship.
These services are fueled by the passion of a lifelong beekeeper whose vision is to equip and resource the next generation for successful, sustainable beekeeping.
