Heroes to Hives: Veterans working with bees

The University of Minnesota Bee Lab provides free beekeeping education for Minnesota veterans through their Bee Veterans program.
 
The program fosters community through hands-on beekeeping training while promoting the recreational and professional benefits inherent in working with honey bees.  

The Bee Veterans program is a partnership of the UMN Bee Squad and the Metropolitan Airports Commission. The Bee Veterans Apiary is located near the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport.
