Central Texas beekeepers school now accepting students

Learn how to produce your own honey and help save the bees by attending the Eleventh Annual Central Texas Beekeepers School on Saturday, March 23 at Brenham High School in Brenham. The school is open to the public for anyone interested in keeping bees or who wants to learn about bees.

Provide your family with this natural sweetener, increase the number of bees to help pollinate our gardens and help the dwindling bee population by raising bees in your back yard, even in populated areas. Most cities allow at least two bee hives per home depending on the size of your lot. You can contact your city offices for regulations in your area.

The beekeeping school will teach you the parts of the hive, how to build or assemble your equipment, how to install bees, the proper procedure for lighting a smoker and how to inspect your bees. You will learn how to dress to minimize the possibility of being stung and what to do if you are stung.
