ABOUT THE TOUR:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Westbury Arts Centre is working with the Bee expert Mike Bensley and Westbury Bee Group to offer an opportunity to tour around the apiary to understand what a working hive is like, and to offer a glimpse into a daily life of beekeeping.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tour lasts for 90 minutes and we end the session with tea, coffee and Q&A.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
