We did the combo tour with Nick and a lovely woman with red hair whose name escapes me. Both were knowledgeable and accommodating and fun! We learned a lot about bees, honey, native plants and the history of beekeeping. I highly recommend this family-friendly activity.

There is a barn outside and sitting area and facts about bees and I believe there is also bee...
