Introduction to Urban Beekeeping and Honey Production
Sunday May 18th, 10:30 am - 12:30 pm
This IN-PERSON WORKSHOP will be hosted at Alemany Farm.
Instructors: SF Beekeepers Association
Come learn beekeeping basics, colony healthy and urban honey production. This two hour class will be hosted by members of the San Francisco Beekeeping Association and will cover the honey bee life cycle, how to identify and treat pests and diseases and an introduction to working with bees safely. Also learn how bees work together to make honey, pollinate flowers and maintain colony nutrition. The class will conclude with a guided tasting of honey from our local plants.
Instructors:
Geof Worcester 
A beekeeper since 2014, I maintain six hives in my sunny backyard a few blocks from Alemany Farm. I rescue swarms from overcrowded hives that have taken up residence in trees and on porches. I belong to bee clubs in San Francisco, Alameda, San Mateo, and Marin counties, actively staying informed on the latest beekeeping practices. I sell my Bernal Bears Honey in local stores and directly to customers, who enjoy visiting my hives. Grateful for my own mentor, I happily share my beekeeping knowledge with others and welcome visitors to my hives.
Lynne Rousseau
 
For over two decades, I've been immersed in the world of beekeeping, maintained active hives and developed a deep appreciation for these remarkable pollinators. Beyond managing my own hives, I'm passionate about sharing my knowledge through educational outreach, from observation hive demonstrations and honey tastings at senior homes and schools to mentoring veterans through Hives for Heroes. My urban homestead reflects my broader commitment to environmental sustainability and provides year-round resources for pollinators. Sharing the wonders of bees and the taste of local honey, and witnessing the joy it brings, continues to fuel my passion for beekeeping and environmental education.

Alcatraz Island

Night Attractions

一數

Alcatraz Island is a stone island in San Francisco Bay, close to the Golden Gate, facing the old town of San Francisco, the scenery around the island is very beautiful. Because the water around the island is very deep and the water flow is very fast, the island used to be a prison. The island, which held the most famous and dangerous prisoners in the United States in the last century, became famous, and Hollywood made movies, and now it is a San Francisco Bay attraction.

Golden Gate Park

Family-Friendly Attractions

112***09

This is a relatively large park near the Golden Gate Bridge, called Golden Gate Park. Most tourists will not go to this attraction specifically, but since we are traveling independently, we can visit it in a more relaxed manner. The environment design of this park is unparalleled and it is worth checking out.

Lombard Street

泰迪小熊

Came on September 24, 2017. This attraction is unique, beautiful and interesting, and definitely one of the must-see attractions to visit San Francisco. Jiuqu Flower Street is actually a section of Lombard Street, located between Hyde Street and Leavenworth Street. This section is a steep slope, but it is designed to be eight hairpin bends, and the road is full of flowers. If you need to shoot the effect of Jiuqu, you must stand at the low position of Leavenworth Street. Chinese people can drive by themselves in the western United States where San Francisco is located. If you will drive in San Francisco, you may wish to experience the feeling of driving through Jiuquhua Street.
