Description
Learn about bees and beehives in a fun and educational experience. Uncap, spin, filter, and bottle your own jar of fresh honey to take home, complete with a personalized label.
Begin your experience by learning about the history of bees in New Zealand. Hear about the introduction of the European honeybee and how a colony builds honeycomb, converts nectar into honey, and operates seamlessly as a colony within each hive.
Learn about the basics of propolis, beeswax, and royal jelly, and how these amazing compounds are produced by bees. Then, begin working with a fresh frame of honey.
Remove the ‘capping’ from your frame to expose the delicious honey underneath. Then, spin your frame in a powered extractor. Watch through the clear lid to see your honey flying out under the centrifugal force, ready to pour out the ‘honey gate’.
Open the 'honey gate' and watch your honey pour into a filter to remove any beeswax. Once filtered, it's ready to bottle. Lick the honey off your fingers and get your photo taken for your personalized honey label.
