Our winery in Middleburg will play host to the beekeeping and honey producing GURU: Hackenberg Apiaries (Lewisburg, PA). They have been in the business for 63 years (WOW!) and know all there is to know about beekeeping and honey production. They have been featured in TIME magazine as the first beekeeper to witness Colony Collapse Disorder in bee colonies.

They will impart their wisdom and offer instruction on what goes into building a beehive and the subsequent honey production. They will also offer food samples (made using their honey) and recipes to take home!

Our very own, Karl Zimmerman, will be on hand to offer instruction on Mead-making, as our Bad Moose Mead is made from Hackenberg’s very own Orange Blossom honey. So this workshop is NOT to be missed!

Cost of ticket is $20 and includes interactive instruction, food & wine samples. They can be purchased here.  Enjoy this very informative, FUN and relaxing afternoon in a beautiful setting overlooking Shade Mountain vineyards situated in rural America. Spots are limited! RSVP by March 12th online or call the winery at 570-837-3644.
