Lunch Bunch 12:00-12:30 pm (optional)

Grades 2-4

Explore the wonders of the honeybee at The Shaker Historical Society!

The North Union Shakers once resided on the land that is now the Shaker Historical Society property.  The Center Family, one of the three North Union families—Center, Mill, and East—occupied the land where they had apple orchards, a large vegetable garden, an herb garden, beehives, and fruiting bushes.  They supplied the North Union Shakers with all of their produce and honey, and sold the surplus to the “worldly people” who lived nearby.

Bee the Buzz is an interactive activity camp featuring the life and behaviors of the amazing and vital honeybee.  Participants will learn about the honeybee and their local history through hands-on lessons, unbeelievable games, crafts, exploration of a working beehive, and investigation of antique and modern beekeeping artifacts.
