Honeybees 101 and Beekeeping Basics

Learn the basics behind bees and beekeeping with beekeeper and Agriculture Specialist Zachary Koopman, ISU Research and Demonstration Farms. In 2023, Zack installed a unique group of honey bees near Sycamore Falls at Reiman Gardens, where they collect nectar and pollen, add to the local ecology, and produce honey.

If you've been wondering about keeping bees on your property (or about bees in general), bring your questions and if you're up for it, stay for a short guided trip out to see the bees on site!
