Kate is a passionate beekeeper whose love for these remarkable pollinators knows no bounds. Learning everything from watching HBRC’s beekeeping videos and taking the introductory courses equipped Kate with the necessary skills and understanding to enter this world of beekeeping. Working with Paul and Janet, the students, and the volunteers, solidified the profound beauty and boundless wonders of the honey bee. In every aspect of Kate’s life, a deep connection to nature is apparent. Her love of beekeeping, canoeing, and cross-country skiing all converge into this wonderful tapestry we call life.
