Bee Hang with Luke and Lorenzo
We are thrilled to introduce our newest class experience: a Bee Hang. Imagine an evening where you can simply relax, enjoy good food, and engage in fascinating conversations; all in the company of honeybees!
This isn't your typical lecture style class. We believe the best way to learn is by exploring together. We are opening up the discussion to you, inviting all your questions about conservation, bees, and the natural world.
Our special focus for the evening will be on how Luke's bees contribute to art and the deeper reasons behind their creative work.
Come with a curious mind and an appetite! As we get to know each other, we will certainly wander into a delightful range of topics, ensuring both your mind and your belly are happily full.
You can expect:
To feel more comfortable around bees and understand their importance.
To get a behind the scene look of The Beecoming Home Project
To spend time and connect with likeminded community.
To have a deeper appreciation for nature
We want this to be accessible to all and reserve a few “pay what you can” spots for each class. Please reach out to chef@lorenzocooks.com if you can’t swing tickets and need some help.
