🎤 Educational Presentations & Speaking Engagements

Bee Stories, Science, and Swarms—Told the Real Way

Whether you’re hosting a school group, planning a community seminar, or organizing a local garden club event, I bring real-world beekeeping knowledge, wild colony rescue stories, and a natural way of connecting with people of all ages.

🧠 What I Teach

Every presentation is tailored to the crowd—young kids, teens, adults, nature lovers, or complete bee newbies.

Here are just a few of the topics I can cover:

• 🐝 The Life of a Hive – Learn how bees live, work, and survive
• 🚫 What Happens When You Spray a Hive – (Hint: it gets messy and expensive)
• 🛠️ How I Rescue Bees from Walls, Floors & Roofs
• 🌎 Why Bees Matter – Pollination, ecosystems, and the future of food
• 🍯 Honey Tasting & Harvesting – The sweet side of the story
• 🔍 Ask the Beekeeper – Q&A sessions that are fun, honest, and full of surprises

I can bring slides, videos, props, and hive equipment—whatever suits your group and space.

🌿 A Beekeeper Who Listens to the Bees

I don’t just manage bees—I study them in the wild.

Before I ever pull frames or harvest honey, I spend time watching feral colonies in old trees, barns, and hidden hollows. I pay attention to what they do naturally, without human interference. I don’t force them to fit into a system—I shape my beekeeping around what they teach me.

This is natural beekeeping—not just a style, but a relationship.

• Rooted in observation
• Guided by the rhythms of nature
• Grounded in the design of our Creator
• And always respectful of the bees’ own ancient wisdom

I believe healthy beekeeping doesn’t come from more gadgets—it comes from humility, patience, and a willingness to listen. That’s what I bring to every workshop, trail walk, and classroom visit.

When I speak, I speak from experience—and from a place of deep respect for these creatures I get to learn from every day.

It’s not about controlling bees—it’s about partnering with them.

📚 Perfect for:

• 🏫 Schools & Homeschool Groups
• 🌻 Garden Clubs & Master Gardener Programs
• 🐝 Nature Centers, Parks, and Camps
• 🎪 Fairs, Festivals & Farmers Markets
• 🧓 Senior Centers & Libraries
• 📍 Community Events and Town Halls

Presentations can be casual or formal, indoor or outdoor, sitting or strolling.
I’ve even given talks right next to active colonies (in full gear, of course).

🐾 On-Site or On-Trail

If you want to bring your group to me, we’ve got:

• A 1-mile educational walking trail with learning stations
• Space for up to 8 people for hands-on bee experiences
• Open-air, nature-connected teaching right in the heart of my bee yard

Great for field trips, nature walks, or any group that learns better outside the classroom.

🚗 I Can Come to You

Want me at your event, school, or gathering?
I’m happy to travel for speaking engagements and outreach events.

If you’re within a reasonable drive from Cicero, NY, we can set something up.
Farther away? Let’s talk—bees have wings, and I drive a truck.
