One-on-One Private Beekeeping Lesson
Want a to learn from a UF Advanced Master Beekeeper?
Now you can train one-on-one with Timothy. It's a private class with private beekeeping lessons tailored to your specific needs. You can choose from 1 to 4 hours. You don't have to live in the area, simply plan to visit Tim the next time you want to take a trip to Florida. First, choose the amount of time you want to train, share what you hope to learn, provide us with your two date selections and the names of those you are inviting to your private lesson. Then we will customize your lessons to focus on your requested needs before you arrive.
These classes are held at our apiary in Cape Coral, Florida. Sessions may involve being in a hive (nice weather only) or sitting down with Tim. You may bring others with you, such as a friend or spouse, but the more you bring the less one-on-one it is.
The One-on-One private lessons are not designed to teach you how to START to beekeep. If you are serious about learning to keep bees, we recommend you start by taking the Intro to Beekeeping class and use these one-on-one private lessons to supplement your learning AFTER you have taken the foundational basics.
Gift certificates are available for download after payment for the One-on-One Private Lessons, if you want to give a beekeeper a wonderful gift!
