Busy Beekeepers!

The Home Schoolers were all abuzz this week learning about urban farming and BEES! Not only are bees superb pollinators, they also  make the most delicious honey! Backyard beekeeping has become popular among urban farmers and it is easy to see why. Who doesn’t love their sweet honey?!
