The Secret Life of Bees with Sister Creek Hives and Cooking with Honey
2025-03-15 11:00 - 15:00 | Mystic Sky Ranch, 5818 Ranch Road 165, Dripping Springs, TX, 78620, United States
Even if you don’t want your own hives, this is a fascinating subject we should all know more about.
Join us for an exciting buzz-worthy journey with special guest, Georgia Miguez. As founder of Sister Creek Hives, she pioneers BeeLease, a service initiative to restore habitats and preserve the region’s natural beauty. Her journey, sparked months before a breast cancer diagnosis, transformed into a source of gratitude and a mission to teach chemical-free beekeeping practices. She’s the bee’s knees!
Georgia will take you under her wings (no pun intended) sharing a slideshow and answering questions as you enjoy snacks of cheese, fruit and honey. Suit up in protective gear and head to the Apiary to learn what it takes to keep a hive going and see the inner workings of hive boxes and equipment. Pull a frame or two and identify important stages of activity such as looking for new eggs, larva and capped larva, all to insure the mesmerizing life cycle of the honey bee and mind-blowing supremacy of the Queen Bee!
Includes Complimentary Welcome Nibble and Lunch by Sibby Barrett, Onion Creek Kitchens
Bees Knees Honey Apple Brie Bites on Crostini

Meet our expert “pizzaiolo”, Darius Aram, owner of Slice Street Pizza in Dripping Springs. With backgrounds in culinary arts and hospitality, Darius “The Pizza Man” has built a brand rooted in tradition with a flavor-forward twist. He lives for the crunch of a perfect crust, the burn of a Calabrian chili, and the smile that hits when someone takes their first bite of his pizza!
From the 48-hour cold-fermented dough made with non-GMO flour and real olive oil, to fancy chili peppers, Darius believes great pizza is a love letter to process and product. He’ll share secrets of how to make pliable thin yeast dough, kneading it to perfection to create flavorful crust. Then it’s your turn to mold, flavor with an array of seasonal toppings and place on the pizza peel into the wood-fired Mugnaini Pizza Oven. Learn tips for hosting a party at home whether you have a pizza oven or not! Can you smell the aroma of San Marzano tomatoes and see the bright color of basil?
