A Beard of Live Bees, Free Rods on the Schuylkill, and 42 Years of Feria del Barrio

A Free Honey Festival, Including a Man Wearing a Beard of Bees

Saturday · 10 AM-4 PM

Wyck Historic House & Garden · Germantown · · All ages

🟢Free · The apiary talk starts at 10:30, so go early if that is the draw

Wyck runs this one with the Philadelphia Beekeepers Guild, and it is a genuinely odd, genuinely great afternoon. There are honey tastings and live extractions, hive talks at the apiary starting at 10:30, and a bee beard demonstration, which is exactly what it sounds like. Craft vendors and kids' activities fill the garden, the historic house is open for tours, and there is a mead and beer garden for the adults. It lands on Second Saturday in Germantown, so the neighborhood is busy anyway.
