A farkakta idea? Nobody ever got stung merely talking about beekkeping.
Those hoping to learn more about the honey they're dipping challah and apples into during the Jewish High Holiday season can do so at Saul's
Adventures in the Honey Harvest next Tuesday night. Topics for discussion include urban beekeeping, reversing the bee population decline, and the differences between wildflower, clover, and raw honey. Honey and beekeeping experts, including Jen Radtke, a beekeeping instructor, Helene Marshall of
Marshall's Farm Natural Honey, and Corey Block, urban farm coordinator for
Treasure Island Job Corps, will be on hand to share their tales from the hives and offer tips on how to start your own. There will be a tasting of raw, urban honeys as well. While most Jewish mothers would deem urban beekeeping to be a
farkakta idea, simply discussing beekeeping should be safe.
