Edwords will give a brief history of beekeeping, which became big business in the 1800’s due to Mr. John Harbison’s successful enterprise. The presentation will also include safety tips on what to do if you get attacked by bees.
You will be able to taste local honey in the comb from different parts of San Diego County. You can purchase local honey after the event.
