Come out and watch true teamwork as the bees of a bustling hive do their jobs at Planet Bee. This quaint, upbeat education centre houses a working beehive built behind glass so that wondering eyes can take in a live bee dance and play "find the single queen bee" among 99,999 other bees.
You're invited to watch the bees return to their hive loaded with bee pollen and then watch as they make honey right before your eyes. Look a little closer and you'll see nurse bees feeding the young ones.
There are lots of great tasting honey flavours for you to sample, and they have some great health and body care products, all made in house and from the resources of the hive.
Adults are invited to try out the mead from the Planet Bee Meadery where they turn fermented honey into Honeymoon Meads. It's a welcome addition to the growing world of meads made with the true essence of the Okanagan. Be sure to try the whiskey barrel aged Ode to Odin, it's a top-seller and a crowd favourite. Styled and served like wine, their Honeymoon Mead is sure to create a buzz wherever it goes!
There are several educational programs and tours offered. Check out their website for more information.
