Feel the buzz and make a bee line for Sussex Prairies from 1st June when we shall be celebrating our love of bees ! Pollenicious baby !
Our whimsical celebrity, Austin Flowers ,will be creating a buzz in the largest beehive in Sussex. Find him bee- hind you in his foppish attire and count his collection of pin badges and jewellery as part of the bee quiz .Will you be bold enough to feel the bees in his bee box ?
You can also follow the bee trail of bee factoids around the garden.. you will be able to answer such questions as -what does a Queen do ? how fast can a bee fly ? how do bees communicate ?how long have bees been here ? how is honey made ?
and finally make it to the teashop and the Queen Honey Cake Tower ! and sample some of our cakes made with honey , herbs and flowers.Bee – licious !
We shall be joined by local beekeepers and a local blacksmith and green woodworker making bee related items on Friday 5th , Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th June 2015. The sculptor Alison Catchlove will be exhibiting her bee sculptures in the garden..
