Busy Calendar of Events for Urban Beekeepers

Who knew that Philadelphia is “the cradle of American beekeeping”? Not me, until now, thanks to the Philadelphia Beekeepers Guild, and a press release the group has issued announcing its 7th Annual Natural Beekeeping Symposium, to be held on Saturday, Feb. 4, at Temple University.

The all-day event is “packed with beekeeping insight and scientific wonderfulness,” with a lineup of experts who will speak on topics ranging from protecting hives from varroa mites to providing them with a nutritionally optimal array of flowers.

The Philadelphia Beekeepers Guild began in 2009 as an informal group of local beekeepers. It has blossomed since then into a thriving nonprofit that “promotes urban beekeeping and raises awareness of the importance of bees to our environment.” The group maintains a busy calendar of events for both experienced and wannabeekeepers.
