A Message to the Campus Community

May 1, 2024 - 1:47 p.m.

Dear Students and Colleagues,

As we all come to terms with the recent events on campus, it is important to recognize the emotional impact they have taken on us, individually and collectively. We want to acknowledge that this has been an extremely challenging week for Cal Poly Humboldt. We are hurting within our campus community and beyond, and we have much work in front of us to reset, rebuild, and heal. This will take time. We will do this together.

Beekeeping

Offered each spring!

Honeybees pollinate the crops for about a third of the foods we eat, and produce honey and other products. 

The colonial social structure of bees allows us to observe, study and manage them in a way that is beneficial to us, to them, and to nature. 

These two courses will provide the information, experience, and confidence you need to succeed as a backyard beekeeper.

The courses include the opportunity to buy bees and start beekeeping.

Fee for each course is $195. Optional academic credit in Zoology is available for both courses, and costs an additional fee.

These courses may involve field trips to sites outside of the Cal Poly Humboldt campus. Participants are required to complete a Release of Liability form.

Register for both courses non-credit
