The Advanced Class will be held on Saturday (all-day class -9am-4pm) will be a combined class of students from Friday evening and the students from the 2018 March class held in Akron, Ohio this past spring. Cost for this all-day session is $75.00. The Saturday class will refresh equipment, liquid honey and wax then move on to the remaining five areas:
- Common Products of the Hive
- Non- Honey Hive Products
