Agenda & Speakers

Get ready for a full day of learning, inspiration, and all things bees! This year's Bee School will feature a keynote speaker and three educational tracks with four sessions each, offering something for everyone—from those just getting started to experienced beekeepers and bee enthusiasts. 

• The Beginner track will cover the essentials of getting started, hive inspections, Varroa management, and honey harvesting. 
• Beyond Beginner will explore more advanced hive management techniques, including single brood box management, condensing hives, and alternative hive setups. 
• For those interested in exploring the world beyond beekeeping, Beyond the Hive will feature topics such as apitherapy, honey infusions, bee photography, and planting for pollinators. 

Attendees are welcome to mix and match sessions across all three tracks throughout the day with the agenda being posted in the upcoming months.

The day will also include time to browse local beekeeping vendors, connect with fellow bee enthusiasts, and enjoy a lunch prepared on-site by GRCC culinary students, included with registration. We'll wrap up with a brief panel discussion, giving attendees another opportunity to learn from our speakers. Stay tuned for the full agenda, session times, and speaker details!
