Founded by Leah Fenton and Mike Wright, Bee Shed is a hands-on, nature-based after-school club for primary-aged children in Kent.

 

Designed to spark curiosity and connect young people with the natural world, Bee Shed invites children to take part in the full beekeeping journey- from building hives and cultivating colonies to harvesting (and tasting!) their own honey.

 

At Bee Shed, children will:

​

• Build and care for real beehives

• Learn to safely work with bees

• Explore pollination and plant life

• Produce and enjoy the honey they've helped create

• Understand the essential role bees play in our environment
   

Did you know that one-third of the food we eat relies on pollinators like bees?

Or that a single honeybee can visit up to 5,000 flowers in a single day?

 

Bees are vital- and so is teaching the next generation to care for them. More than just a club, Bee Shed is a growing hive of learning and community, where children can explore, create, and care- together.
