Join us on the Anchorpoint plaza for a buzzing lunchtime celebration of World Bee Day – featuring a lineup of free, hands-on activities run by Bees Up Top.
Whether you’re keen to learn, create, or just taste something sweet, there’s something for everyone. No need to book – just drop in and enjoy!
What’s happening:
🐝 Live honey extraction – Watch fresh honey being spun straight from the hive. Learn how it’s harvested, chat with the beekeepers, and pour your own golden jar of goodness to take home.
🎨 Bee-themed painting activity – Get creative and paint your own bee artwork – perfect for a mindful moment and a fun way to celebrate our pollinator pals.
🌱 DIY seed bomb station – Make your own wildflower seed bomb to take home and plant. It’s an easy, impactful way to support local pollinators in your backyard or balcony garden.
💄 Beeswax lip balm making – Craft your own all-natural lip balm using beeswax and essential oils. It’s sustainable, simple, and something you’ll actually use.
🍯 Honey tastings and chats with local beekeepers – Sample a range of delicious local honeys, purchase some to take home, and ask the experts anything you’ve ever wanted to know about bees, hives, and how to support urban pollination.
