A buzzing bee festival!

Get a buzz from the Bienenfest 2018

When: SAT–SUN, October 6 & 7, 12pm–5pm
Where: Am Himmel
Entry: Free!

No one looks forward to the birds and the bees chat, and luckily this has nothing to do with it. Instead this weekend, you’ll have the opportunity to talk just about bees at the festival dedicated to the little critters. Whether you have kids or not, this little adventure promises to be educational fun for all. With a chance to see some hives, a research tent with a bee quiz, and even a special bee walk for you to see and learn all about how honey is produced. And this will all be happening on a hill top at the beautiful green location of Am Himmel.

Recommended if you like: learning something over the weekend, educating the little ones on their days off, getting out of the house on a weekend, grassroots food production, buying local, slow food, eating organic, bees, smearing honey all over your body and having somebody lick it off
