Empowering Minds, Protecting Pollinators
The beekeepers at NOD Apiary Products Ltd. have made it their goal to educate the global beekeeping community about sustainable apiculture since the company was founded in 1997. The Honey Bee Education Centre was created as a means of streamlining our expert knowledge to the local community through events and courses at our head office located in Quinte West, Ontario.
Beginner Beekeeping Program
An extended course that introduces basic beekeeping skills to beginners. No experience or ownership of bee hives is required, just an interest in bees! This program includes a mix of classroom theory and hands-on experience in the bee yard, covering the fundamentals of beekeeping in a fun and informative manner. With small class size and 8 sessions of training, you’ll be a beekeeper before you know it.
Beekeeping Mentorship Program
We’ve developed a specialized mentorship program that provides one-on-one learning as you follow an experienced beekeeper through a full season of beekeeping. You will have the opportunity to join our instructor in the bee yard monthly for an overview of seasonally appropriate tasks and intermediate management techniques.
