Event Location: Threefold Community Farm, Chestnut Ridge, NY
Join us Friday evening for an introductory lecture on the overarching approach of biodynamic beekeeping, a meditative path of inquiry into the life of the honeybee. This talk is open to the public for a small fee, but included for those attending Saturday’s full-day workshop.
Saturday will include some classroom time: immersing in the life of the bee through the wheel of the year, preparing for overwintering, learning about necessary equipment and site preparation for the spring, and learning how to best support the honeybee in her natural rhythms. We’ll also visit the hives in the Pfeiffer Garden for an up close and personal experience with the bees.
Our workshop is for folks looking to deepen their understanding of the honeybee, and is open to current beekeepers and those still dreaming.
