North Buckhead Bee Arrival Celebration
May 8, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Honeybees are coming to North Buckhead!
Join us on Saturday, May 8th to celebrate the introduction of our bee hives and their queen bee at 684 Mountain Drive.
The festivities will begin at 1 pm, and will include a parade for children to walk in their most festive bee-inspired wear. The parade will start at 684 Mountain Drive, circle through Mountain Way Common, then come down Mountain Way to end at 684 Mountain Drive.
Not able to arrive in a costume? No problem! We want all who are willing and excited to participate — babies in baby strollers included!
There will also be food & drinks, arts & crafts, and interactive, educational activities for the kids to enjoy.
The honeybees will be safe and comfortable in their hives away from the crowd. There is no entrance fee for this event.
This event is the culmination of our work this past year to create a bee habitat at 684 Mountain Drive. Livable Buckhead has partnered with Doc’s Healing Hives and Buckhead Rotary Club to further develop this local Buckhead community park. It will soon serve as an amenity to PATH400, and the bee habitat — which includes bee hives and a pollinator garden — will serve as an educational opportunity to showcase how vital bees are to our ecosystem.
Please follow CDC guidelines on COVID-19 precautions, including maintaining a safe distance from others during this event.
