Markham Museum

📣 Please welcome Queen Charlotte Alma Buzzy! 🐝👑

We’re filled with excitement and gratitude from your amazing suggestions to help us name our queen bee. This wouldn’t bee possible without our wonderful community! 💛

Charlotte - William Berczy’s Wife’s name
Alma - First Female Mayor of Markham
Buzzy - Community Pick!

Did you know? A queen bee only lives 3-5 years and is the sole mother to the whole colony. They are the only reproductive female in the hive and can lay up to 2,000 eggs per day during peak seasons!
