Description

Update for Oct 15th, 2024 – Our 2024 winery tours have finished for the season.  Book for 2025 or contact us for a special appointment.

Fascinated with bees and worry about their health?  Do you have questions about bees and want to know more?  Our staff will guide you on this fun family friendly activity.  You be will engaged and educated while learning the history of bees and beekeeping.  By the end of the tour you will be able to answer the following questions and more.  How did those bees fly from Europe?  How long have humans been bee keeping? I don’t like honey – what have bees done for me lately?  What is a skep? How stylish would I look in a bee bonnet?   You will also get a glimpse of the future of the human/bee partnership – robohives are in use today across North America.

The nature trail consists of 2-acres of native prairie wildflowers.   Enjoy a walk in the field, take a seat and embrace the summer.  You will get hands on with an inactive hive and bee keeping equipment.

Costs are $15 per adult (19+), $7 per child (10-18).  This tour is free for children under 10 – no booking needed.

This tour is also offered as a self guided drop-in activity from 11:30am until close at 6:30pm.  The self-guided tour can also be enhanced with our app that can deliver a game experience or audio tours in English or French.  If you prefer one of these options, click here.
