Gran’s Bees

$8.95

Gran’s Bees is the story of a young person’s unexpected first lessons in bees. We’re introduced to basic tools of the trade, including supers, the smoker, and the hive tool, as Gran engages the youngster in a hive inspection one sunny afternoon. As the work begins, all that is seen is “too many bees”! Yet, events of the day lead to understanding of the work of the colony as well as the vital connection between the bees and the flowers that flourish in Gran’s garden. Additional space is provided for personal observations. For photos of the text, visit the Beargrass Press Portfolio.
