Additional Resources for your Beekeeping Journey

Thank you for coming to see me at the Central Texas Bee School! As promised,  below are a few resources, organized by class, intended to help you in your journey.

Looking for more hands on help? We were the first to offer an immersive beekeeping course in Texas, and we are currently in our 19th cohort (our 10th year!)  This will be our very last cohort, and we have two spots left. You can choose to take the live online classes, or add on the practical hands-on component which takes place at the Honey Ranch just east of Austin. If you are interested, please email me at tara@twohiveshoney.com.  We have one session under our belt, but we will catch you up and give a nice little discount as well.
