On Sunday, October 14th, from 2-4 p.m., beekeepers will be at Colvin Run Mill to talk about and demonstrate the process of honey harvesting. Visitors will be able to sample honey on cornbread made from the mill's cornmeal. They will have an observation hive with live bees too. This is a free event and gives everyone a chance to learn how important bees are to us.

Also, on Sundays in October, they will be grinding grain in the mill. There is a cost to tour the mill - $6 adults, $5 students 16 and up with ID, $4 children (5-15) and seniors (60+).
