Festival of the Bees will return to the Langley Demonstration Garden on Saturday, May 28.
From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., visitors to the garden in the 21200-block of Fraser Hwy. can explore the wild world of bees and pollination, invited Garden Programs Coordinator Alexandra Falconer.
“Meet a variety of bee-wise folks who will educate and inspire,” Falconer said.
“Wear a costume! Bees, butterflies, flowers, and other springtime costumes are encouraged.”
The free, kid-friendly event will include beeswax candle making, seed bomb creating, bee house making, a plant sale, a seed swap, face painting and more.
Event will take place rain or shine, with plenty of covered space. No registration required.

The garden was established more than a quarter-century ago by the Township of Langley in partnership with the Langley Environmental Partners Society, to teach residents chemical-free and WaterWise tips and techniques for keeping gardens and yards thriving and healthy for people, wildlife and the environment.
