Introduction to Bee Keeping with Bee Wranglers

DATE: Sunday 12/22/24   TIME: 10:30am - 12:30pm

Welcome to an exciting journey into the world of beekeeping and the vital role of pollinators in our ecosystem.
Learn what is required to start your own apiary and what plants are best to use in the garden to provide habitat for all pollinators.
Everything you need to start, including the basic woodenware beehive boxes, tools, and protective gear, will be displayed and explained. 



Instructor bio:

Daniel is a native Floridan with a particular affinity and commitment to studying these ecosystems to preserve and give back to the communities through research, outreach, and engagement. With over 200 community service hours supporting subtropical and tropical wildlife conservation and environmental restoration programs. His hobbies include poetry, cooking, beekeeping, gardening, and mountain biking. 

He graduated from FIU in 2018 with a B.A. in Environmental Studies and Sustainability and a certificate in Agroecology, and also became a certified beekeeper.  He then graduated from the University of Florida in 2023  with a Master of Science in Agronomy and a concentration in Agroecology.
 
He has assisted in many colony rescues and swarm relocations and launched the company Bee Wranglers in 2020. His work as a beekeeper goes beyond the apiary. He uses the platform to advocate for all pollinators and discuss ways to build habitats and support biodiversity. Soon, he plans to develop a small piece of land in Homestead into an agroecological educational farm.
