Bravo to all the beekeepers who showed up today in the 100+ heat for the LACBA Beekeeping Class 101 at Bill's Bees Bee Yard, https://www.facebook.com/BillsBeesHoneyhttp://goo.gl/Z5UZos.

A great round of applause and an abundance of gratitude to Bill and Clyde for carrying on in the true spirit of mentoring by hosting another great LACBA Beekeeping Class 101 -- in the 100+ heat. You guys are awesome.

REMINDER: We will not have as LACBA Beekeeping Class 101 in September. We will be utilizing what we have learned as beekeepers at the Los Angeles County Fair Bee Booth. Come out and volunteer. You never know how much you know until you start sharing your knowledge with others. It's a great way to increase your beekeeping skills. 

Our final class of the season will be held October 11, 2015 at Bill's Bees Bee Yard.

Bill's Bees: 10,000 Bees Beard With Rhett & Link on Good Mythical Morning

"A guy named Bill put 10,000 Bees on my face."

Rhett & Link, hosts of Good Mystical Morning, the daily morning comedy talk show, head off to Bill's Bees Bee Yard to see if they'd be good candidates as beekeepers.

"Two crazy guys came to visit one day and wanted me to put bees on their face,” says Bill Lewis of Bill’s Bees. “Okay!!!” Bill's Bees does most anything to help the bees!

Also on board was Rob McFarland of HoneyLove http://www.HoneyLove.org.
