The Training Place

Beekeeping Workshop
With Emily Helton

Class Type: 2 DAY REGISTRATION – VIRTUAL ONLY

This 2 day virtual workshop on April 1st and 8th  5:00-7:00 pm promotes safe beekeeping practices, healthy hive management, and proven strategies to reduce colony losses while supporting local honey production. With recent research indicating colony losses of up to 60% in California—and with the tri-county region playing a critical role in bee breeding and agricultural pollination—this training is both timely and essential.

Offered in collaboration with the Honeybee Discovery Center, the Honeybee Biology & Beekeeping Workshop is designed for both new and returning beekeepers.

Honeybee Discovery Center expert trainer Emily Helton brings extensive field experience in commercial beekeeping, colony health, and sustainable hive management—ensuring participants gain practical, research-informed skills they can immediately apply.
