NOTE: This class is open to all. It is our priority to ensure that there is space in each cohort for women, LGBTQIA2S+, Black, Indigenous & POC beekeepers, as well as beekeepers who wouldn’t normally have the financial means to attend a course of this nature.

Why? Because these beekeepers are often excluded from bee educational spaces. To this end, some of the questions is designed to gather demographic and experiential information. These questions will help us select a diverse cohort of beekeepers across both experience and identity.
