The Arbach Apiary’s apiary tour takes place at the Arbach Farm in Baar. In the apiary and the bee storage area, a beekeeper explains how he works with and cares for his bees. Afterward, the tour highlights important food sources for bees in the surrounding area and showcases a bee-friendly farm that offers inspiration for agriculture and gardening. To wrap up, the group samples honey from the apiary’s own hives.
The tour is suitable for club outings, small team events, and corporate functions, and takes place from April through August. Each tour accommodates up to 10 people. Groups of up to 20 people split into smaller groups and take turns participating in a second tour focused on bee-friendly agriculture. Upon request, the program can be expanded to include a tour of the Arbach water supply system or a specialized lecture on bees, bee mortality, humus formation, or water supply.
