Beekeeping > Products Of The Hive
presentation
Zweefer:
I've been asked to give a 15-20 min presentation to non-beekeepers on products of the hive.
I figured I would throw out my ideas here, and then crowd source information and suggestions to make life easier.
So for products, I am thinking in no particular order, pollination, bees themselves (packages / nucs), pollen, honey, wax, royal Jelly, apitherapy, and propolis.
I'll add more tomorrow after I get up, as it is late here, and I need sleep.
LazyBkpr:
that shouldnt be so bad... You could easily just do half an hour on collecting pollen from the bees using pollen gates/entrances... Handmade Soap, Lotion, Body Butter, Body Balm, Lip Balm, Soothing Salve and 100% pure Bees Wax Candles, NOT to mention HONEY and all of its uses and applications. You got this!
Zweefer:
I could easily go two hours. My problem is keeping out of the weeds, and giving a general overview. I think what’s getting me is this is for on new people, so a lot of what I find interesting they may not.
Bakersdozen:
Are you thinking value added products or topics related to beekeeping? To me, value added products are soap, lotions, lip balm, etc. To me, topics related to beekeeping would be nectar and pollen sources, pollination services, swarm education, observation hives, mead making, planting for pollinators, etc.
Is your audience beekeepers, wanna be beekeepers, or the public?
Will you be doing a powerpoint, hands on demo, or just talking?
Zweefer:
For public, PowerPoint probably- it is for a “demonstration” time for our local county fair.
