This Autumn, Roma Street Parkland will come alive with busy bee enthusiasts and those looking to explore this urban oasis on the new Roma Street Parkland Guided Tours program. These premium tours take flight from 13 April, with the ‘Behind the Buzz’ beekeeping experience kicking the new program off.
Guests will get their nature fix on Sunday, 13 April while uncovering the fascinating world of bees with a Beekeeping Experience hosted by apiculture experts Bee One Third. It will be an immersive and educational experience exploring the vital role these incredible creatures play in our ecosystem, while safely getting hands-on with the art of beekeeping.
Bee keeping tours
And the sweetest gift of all… the honey at the end of the tour!
Apiarist Jack Stone from Bee One Third said he is excited to be sharing his knowledge of bees with Brisbanites this autumn.
“Bees play such an important role in our ecosystem and the more people who learn and understand this the better. I’m thrilled to share my knowledge and experience with Brisbane locals in such a beautiful inner city setting,” Jack said.
“We at Bee One Third are dedicated to sustainable beekeeping and educating the community about the essential work bees do.”
The expert guides from Bee One Third will show guests how these tiny pollinators support biodiversity, food production, and our environment.
