‘Busy Bee Costume Build and Farm Exploration’

Monday starts a week that’s all about bee-ing: a city celebration of honey and the creatures that make it. Children can prepare for the signature event of NYC Honey Week — the Sept. 13 Honey Fest, and its children’s Be-a-Bee Parade at Rockaway Boardwalk in Queens — at this costume workshop and plant investigation at Brooklyn Navy Yard. The organization City Growers will help young participants make buzz-worthy finery and then take them to the roof for a cooking demonstration and a tour of the farm plants that honey bees depend on — and vice versa.
