Workshops | BEEKEEPING WORKSHOPS
Cet atelier vous emmène à la découverte des abeilles domestiques et sauvages : Parce que la suisse a la chance d’avoir une multitude d’espèces d’abeilles, vous découvrirez le rôle de ces insectes pollinisateurs et leur importance pour la biodiversité végétale.
Notre apiculteur vous expliquera de manière théorique le monde incroyable de ces animaux et vous serez alors prêt à participer aux visites des ruches du jardin. Ouvrière, faux bourdon, reines, couvain n’auront plus de secret pour vous.
This workshop is led by Cédric Périllat, a beekeeper, founder of Printemps Abeilles, and an enthusiast of these exceptional pollinators of our gardens and orchards.
