Meet Charlie and the AMAZING Bearding Ladies! We had the awesome opportunity to help with this exhibit at our local county fair, and what an experience it was! IMPORTANT: The “bee beard” demonstration should only be performed by skilled beekeepers in a controlled environment. Do not attempt without proper guidance, as it can pose risks to your safety and to the bees. #newbees #beebeard #honeybees #beekeeping #beekeepers #honeybees | The Newbees
