Class

All students and friends of Spikenard are invited to join in three days of gratitude and celebration of the bees, the landscape, and our own inner transformation. This is a time we get to know and work with the hives from the periphery through three days of special lectures and activities, art and music making, and tending of sanctuary land, the "body" of the beehive.

In this workshop we will look at what needs to be done in the fall in order to let the hives go into the winter as strong and healthy as possible, and also take a look at the winter and early spring months, probably the most difficult time of the year for the bees. We will take a closer look at the various illnesses and probable causes, as well as share our methods of hive feeding, wrapping, and consolidation for best possible over-wintering success.

Changing the World for Real: Awakening students’ will for Biodynamic Agriculture

Teachers of biodynamic agriculture have a calling to spread this method and worldview to wider circles and in particular to the next generation of biodynamic practitioners. However, reaching new people and inspiring them is not always easy. Teachers of biodynamic agriculture face many questions and challenges:

→ How to pass on the often complex spiritual ideas of biodynamic agriculture?

→ How to keep students motivated and engaged in their own learning?
