Group Tours

Hello tour organizers,

Thank you for your interest in our tours.  It would be great to see your group here at the farm. 

We have enjoyed entertaining a number of senior and special interest bus tours over the years. Our horseshoe driveway makes it easy for buses to navigate. There's also a ramp to our education area and honey shop for those who have trouble with stairs.  Washrooms and picnic tables are here for your convenience.

 

More details about our tours: 

At our honey farm we can accommodate small and large groups of all ages for approximately a two hour educational tour/seminar. We conduct a bee-yard tour, a honey house tour, a beeswax candle making demonstration and a honeycomb tasting!  Our focus during the seminar is to encourage people to ask us questions that we can answer with hands-on experiences!  At the conclusion of the two hour session, each participant gets to taste some honey comb and receives a small pair of beeswax candles to take home.

The seminar cost is $5.00 / person for supplies and labour.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Sincerely,

      Ann, Stefan & Jaimie Board
