Questions
What should I wear to a hive inspection?
Always attend hive inspections wearing loose-fitting, light-colored pants; long socks (not wool!); sturdy, close-toed shoes; and a long sleeve top. Thicker materials are best, and everything should be light-colored/khaki.
Can I purchase local honey from the Dunwoody Nature Center?
Yes! Please contact info@dunwoodynature.org to inquire about purchasing local honey.
I am having a problem with bees at my house! Who should I call?
Please call a local beekeeper to come and remove the bees. They will help the bees find a happy new home. If you need help finding one, contact our staff at 770-394-3322 or info@dunwoodynature.org.
