Our BRAND NEW Bee-Keeper experience at White Post Farm. Come along to this 45-minute experience for up to 2 people and get up-close-and-personal with our beautiful honeybees. Learn all about the bees, their hive and their hard work for conservation from our expert beekeeper and get the chance to taste some WPF honey at the end of your experience.
Spend time with our lead beekeeper and ask them any questions! A great opportunity to learn more about the importance of bees and how we can help them thrive, whilst getting involved with the hive!
You need to be aged 14+ to take part.
Health & Safety disclaimer: Bee stings may occur and there is Blow torch use.
"There’s no need to feel nervous. Bees can string but that is not what they want to do. They die when they sting. Our bees are known to be well behaved and have a good temperament.
We wrap you up in a suit and gloves which keeps you well protected.
If you’re feeling nervous, please remember that your enjoyment and safety is our priority. Most customers don’t even think about getting stung once they are suited up and surrounded by our girls."
