Immerse yourself in the notes of the wood and its several functions and discover its supply chain, from the origins to the construction of a beehive. During the laboratory you will get to know the world of bees, how to build a beehive and how it is managed. Together with us you will create a handmade souvenir to take home with you. And finally, you will taste our honey and jams.
