Stonecrest GC Celebrates National Garden Week

In celebration of National Garden week, the Stonecrest Garden Club and the Stonecrest Library teamed up to present a program on Beekeeping. Danny Harvey, member of the Henry County and the Rockdale County Beekeepers Associations presented this program to the 48 participants gathered to hear his information of important procedural tips for managing the bees, roles of the various bees in the hive, and the collection of honey.

Many  adults present were interested in becoming beekeepers and Mr. Harvey answered their questions with detailed information .  Although the children in attendance were enthralled with the beekeeper’s uniform worn when working with the bees and the beehive box demonstration, they were excited and delighted to see “up-close” the actual bees “attending” the presentation.
