Landscapers Beautify the Grounds Around the Beehive House

Landscaping work is progressing around the Beehive House as improvements continue to the grounds surrounding Temple Square. At the Salt Lake Temple, doorknobs have been temporarily removed so they can be modified to prevent them from turning. The six-part video series 'Dedicate,' which follows seven young adults from seven countries as they explore the Salt Lake Temple, is now available to stream on Prime Video. The sixth and final episode is scheduled for release in April 2027, coinciding with the opening of the Salt Lake Temple to the public.
