Description
Harvest honey with a Madison-area backyard beekeeper! Jill Stevenson of Hill Farms Honey Company has been raising bees for 10 years. She uses no chemicals of any sort in her hives or during harvesting. This approach is more labor-intensive but produces a sweet, all-natural unprocessed honey that is safer for the Earth and our families. Join Jill as you extract honey on a hand-cranked extractor and learn about beekeeping and attracting native bees and honeybees to your backyard garden. Bottle a jar of Hill Farms honey to take home. Harvest is subject to weather and other factors but is likely to take place in mid-to late July. Complete package will take about 2 hours.
