Join us for an exciting, hands-on day tasting a variety of honeys, exploring the bee yard with a hive inspection, and learning about all things bees and honey.
FAQ
Q: How do you ensure safety in the apiary?
A: Safety is our top priority. Full bee suits are provided and must be worn in the apiary. Closed-toe shoes are required, and guests with exposed skin won't be allowed. The bee yard visit is optional, and if skipped, you can still enjoy the sensory tasting, and educational discussions.
Q: Is this suitable for children?
A: While children are welcome, the event is designed for adults and children. We defined kids as age 5 to 12. The event includes in-depth discussions about industry and biology; focused tasting sessions; and standing in the bee yard for an extended period. We defer to you to decide whether your child would enjoy this experience. Contact us with any questions – we have kids, we get it!
Q: Is the event accessible?
A: Each location varies. Please contact us in advance for venue-specific accessibility information.
Q: What if bad weather affects the apiary tour?
A: In case of rain, high winds , or extreme temperatures, we'll modify the event with an indoor bee talk using observation hives. An indoor exhibition hive will replace the apiary tour in the event of rain or high winds.
Q: What's your cancellation policy?
A: Guests may receive a full refund or credit if they cancel up to and including 15 days before the event, minus transaction fees. Within 14 days, guests can receive a credit to a future event in that year. No-shows are charged the full ticket price.
Refunds or credits are issued if Sandy Bee Mine or the venue cancels. In case of rescheduling, guests can choose to attend the new date or receive reimbursement. The apiary visit is optional, and skipping it won't affect your day's enjoyment.
