Organicology brings together contributors, advocates and change-makers from across the organic trade to revolutionize food, agriculture and economic models for the better.
In this 6-day workshop we will study and practice biodynamic principles. We will learn how we can improve the fertility of the soil on a practical level and also work with the spiritual formative forces of the universe, through ceremony and the use of the biodynamic preparations. Truly living and working between Heaven and Earth.
Experience how our small community works together to honor mother earth and our unseen helpers, the elemental and nature beings.

In this workshop we will explore the many different types of beehives that beekeepers can make, and learn how to work with each of these. We will also weave a Sun Hive together out of rye straw and learn how to make the cow dung and clay paste that we use for extra insulation. We will be learning about and experiencing the different qualities of honey, wax, and propolis; we will dip candles together, and celebrate the growing light of Candlemas time with the queen bees who start laying eggs again at this time of year in anticipation of the season to come!
The vertebrates can be rightly considered our brothers and sisters. Through the animals on the farm (wild and domestic) we have a deep connection to the Earth that formed through evolution and continues today.
