Who knew there was California Gold right here in our own backyard? Our “gold” comes in the form of sweet, golden honey. Honeybees are key pollinators for so many flowers, and for a great deal of our food crops. Come learn all about honeybees, their biology, how they make honey, their complicated social lives, even their dance moves! We will have open hive demonstrations with live bees in our meadow, beekeeping tools and close up pictures in our nature center, games, and you will even a tasting of our very own California Gold honey. Meet at the nature center. Naturalist led hikes to the meadow for open hive demonstrations will be at 2:00 and 3:00.

If you have a digital camera, bring it as your hunting tool and get some great photographs of our nature preserve as part of your prize. If you choose to use the tools you were born with, we have plenty of fun in store. In either case, bring your eyes, ears, noses and legs to our nature center to find your quest.
