Explore a year cultivating biodynamics and community through a weekend workshop series
April 10 - November 13
A Season of Biodynamics spans eight live video sessions monthly, from 9:00 - 10:30am PST / 12:00 - 1:30pm EST.
“Beings, and relationships between beings, is all that exists,” according to biodynamic founder Rudolf Steiner.
During this live stream event, Michael will go step by step through the process of making vertical and horizontal log hives and share lots of video footage, necessary tools, and other resources. This lifestream event will explore various arboreal hive/nest designs and integrate groundbreaking research data and fundamental changes in life sciences as resources for a paradigm shift for apiculture strategies in the Anthropocene.
A Compass Point for Apiculture beyond Sustainability
The departure from normalcy due to climate emergency and accelerating extinction rates of all species opens the door to a re-evaluation and re-conceptualization of core belief systems and practices in beekeeping.
Our special guest will be Dr. Frank Krumm from Switzerland. He is a scientific assistant WSL/SLF in Davos, a member of the Mountain Ecosystems group, and has done research on honeybee nest habitat and tree-micro-habitats. To join the Salon meeting (via Zoom), please click here. The Salon is a free event, serving communities around the globe.
The accelerating loss of animal species and biodiversity reflects the urgency with which we need to move towards the preservation of honeybees. This course is an introduction to a system-based approach to beekeeping and an inquiry into innovative gestures within the biodynamic apicultural field. For all levels of beekeeping; beginners welcome.
Are you thinking about expanding your apiary?
Have you been interested in experimenting with new hive shapes to enhance the partnership between you and your bees?
