Haagen – Dazs Honey Bee Haven

Open daily until sundown and minimally staffed, the Haagen-​Dazs Honey Bee Haven is a cute little place tucked away on the far west side of the UC Davis campus. It’s full of plants and trees that are bee and hummingbird friendly. Don’t be afraid to drop in and take a little stroll — these little buzzers don’t want to sting you any more than you want to be stung. If possible, try to drop in on one of the monthly tours (these usually take place in the late afternoon and you can find the info on the website) so you can learn about all things apian, like the declining bee population, how to make your garden an inviting place for bees, and, if you’re lucky, you’ll get a chance to see the queen and all her subjects inside the glass-​walled observation hive.
