🐝 Our thriving apiary continues to be a hive of activity thanks to our wonderful partnership with Florida A&M University. #WorldBeeDay Since 2021, Dr. Bushong, Master Beekeeper and professor of forensics and criminal justice at FAMU's Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice, has been instrumental in establishing and nurturing our bee colonies. 👉 Working alongside our own Dr. Colin Brady, Director of Collections and Exhibits, this sweet collaboration brings together education and community engagement in a truly special way. "Bees are a keystone species when it comes to our natural environment," explains Dr. Brady. "From a historical perspective, I find them fascinating as they have played critical roles across countless civilizations. From medicine to food, they have followed human development all the way to modern day agricultural practices." Come visit the #TallahasseeMuseum to learn about these and many other remarkable creatures that have shaped human history. 🩵 Visit Tallahasseemuseum.org to explore our exhibits. (fb)
