Bees contribute mightily to our farming system, learn how with a visit to our Red Barn Ranch hive, while you sip Frog’s Leap La Grenouille Rouganté, to discuss hive management, honey bee biology, and the anatomy of a beehive.

A casual tasting of four Frog’s Leap wines, including a special library selection, will follow. Joy founded Bee Focused Beekeeping and turned her lifelong fascination with bees into an opportunity to observe, love, and share the message of what bees provide us and our planet.
