Tour some Brooklyn apiaries and learn how to infuse your own honey in honor of NYC Honey Week, which has a whole host of programs on nature’s great pollinators. The Gowanus Canal Conservancy is hosting a free lecture tonight at 6:30 on the role bees play in urban areas, in FIND Home Furnishings at 43 9th Street. It’s also giving a tour of its apiary on Sunday, September 14 at 11:30 am. For more details, you can RSVP by emailing kimberly@boroughbees.com.
There are classes in beekeeping and honey infusion at the Brooklyn Grange‘s Navy Yard rooftop farm, pictured above, this Sunday afternoon. And, although technically it’s after Honey Week officially ends, Brooklyn Queen beekeeper Margot Dorn is offering a tour of her Brownsville bee hives on September 27 at noon. You can RSVP by emailing brooklynqueenhoney@gmail.com.
To see the whole schedule of events, check out NYC Honey Week and the Brooklyn Grange.
