DUE TO HIGHER THAN NORMAL VISITATION DURING THE WEEKENDS & TODAY’S VA HONEY BEE FESTIVAL,
THE GARDEN IS REQUIRING VISITORS AND NBG MEMBERS TO RESERVE A TIME SLOT TICKET. THANK YOU!

Join the Beekeepers Guild of Southeast Virginia and Norfolk Botanical Garden again this year for a fun filled day with bee products, activities, vendors and great information. Learn how to raise bees and purchase “bee” plants to create a bee friendly yard. Taste honey samples, look inside a bee hive and participate in great activities for the entire family! Kids that come dressed as a bee get a free honey stick! Special activities also in the Children’s Garden.
