Beekeeping Classes to begin in Conway County

by Jon Zawislak - February 10, 2017

The University of Arkansas Cooperative Extension Service will offer a Complete Beekeeping short courses in Morrilton, Arkansas.    This course is open to anyone interested in honey bees or beekeeping.  No prior experience with bees is necessary to participate.  Classes are free, but registration is required to ensure that sufficient class materials are available for all participants.

Classes will cover everything a person needs to know to begin keeping bees safely and successfully.  The course will consist of three class sessions, 6-9 p.m., on three consecutive Monday evenings (February 13, 20 & 27).  Plan to attend all three classes, because new information will be presented each class, building on what has already been covered. All classes will be taught by UA Extension apiculture specialist Jon Zawislak, an EAS-certified Master Beekeeper.
