Testimonials
Taking the Sustainable Urban Beekeeping Program at Langara gave me the confidence to establish my own hives, something I've dreamed of my whole life. Classroom and practical sessions introduced bee-centric hive management and honey production in a clear, thoughtful way.
I especially appreciated that the instructor, Brian Cambell, brought sustainable hive practices, bee-friendly gardening, and the health of local bee and pollinator communities into the classes. He also provided a range of outside sources of information for beekeepers that are just getting started.
I really enjoyed this program. Thanks so much for developing it and getting such a great instructor!
The Sustainable Urban Beekeeping course was both exciting and informative. Relying on the instructor's wealth of knowledge, I quickly learned all about hives and colonies. I was also introduced to relevant biodiversity issues, and real world dilemmas and challenges facing apiarists everywhere. I loved the authentic experience of the hands-on field work. The course certainly served its purpose, but it also has had a great lasting effect on my lifestyle and ecological outlook. I highly recommend.
