Beekeeping 101
Wednesday, June 25 at 5PM
Curious about the buzz behind bees? Join us for a hands-on, hour-long class with a seasoned commercial beekeeper and get an inside look at the fascinating world of honeybees.
We’ll cover the basics of beekeeping, explore tools of the trade (yes, you’ll see a real smoker, hive tool, beekeeper suit, and veil), and even peek inside an observation hive to watch the bees at work.
You’ll get to see real honeycomb frames up close and sample honey straight from the source.
Whether you’re considering a hive of your own, or just love honey and want to learn more, this is a great place to start.
📍 Location: Peterson Park, Pelican Rapids, MN

An Adult Bouquet Bar
On Tuesday, June 24 at 6 PM, we’re gathering at E.L. Peterson Park in Pelican Rapids for a hands-on flower bouquet workshop with a LOCAL flower farm.
$10 per person.
You'll get to keep your bouquet that you created and you'll also receive a free gift. To register, pay online, or just send us your email below.
You’ll get to create your own fresh-cut bouquet with seasonal blooms and greens like Ranunculus, Tulips, Peonies, Feverfew, Bells of Ireland, Bupleurum, and more. Everything is locally grown and bursting with that late spring/early summer magic.
You’ll also hear from the farmers themselves at what it’s really like to run a flower farm: the early mornings, the muddy boots, the joy of planting seeds and watching them bloom. It’s a blend of hard work, creativity, and deep connection to the land — and they’re sharing it all with us.
Light refreshments and hors d’oeuvres will be served, and everyone leaves with their own bouquet and a little gift. The event is $10 per person (you can pay online, with cash, or Venmo at the event), and we’ll have a tip jar if you’d like to support the farm a little extra.
Parking is free on-site. Just bring yourself and maybe a friend or two. It’ll be relaxed and a good reminder of how much beauty is growing all around us.
If you’d rather pay in person, please register below. You can pay Venmo or cash in person.
