As part of the Montague on the Gardens’ commitment to sustainability with The TreadRight Foundation, they are delighted to present The Bee and Honey Masterclass. This event will offer guests a comprehensive 3.5-hour bee experience in conjunction with Bees for Development and The Bedford Estates.

This illuminating experience will be guided by a member of Bees for Development charity and a beekeeper.
