Whether you have a backyard, a city rooftop, or a large piece of land, you can have a dynamic, positive impact on the health and survival of honeybees, which are currently in crisis. This seminar is geared toward nature enthusiasts and aspiring beekeepers. Intuitive, natural, and bee-centered beekeeping methods that strengthen the unity of the hive and honor the honeybee will be emphasized. Topics will include the honeybee and its role in our food supply, the causes of honeybee decline, hive types and placement, ethical hive management techniques, strengthening the immunity and DNA of the honeybee population, biodynamic beekeeping practices, and providing bee forage and medicinal plants for bees.
“While it may feel remote, the global bee crisis affects us all,” said MA Center Director Brahmachari Shantamrita Chaitanya, “which is why interest in beekeeping has soared among novice and hobbyist beekeepers over recent years.”
“Attending our Regenerative Natural Beekeeping seminar October 17th and 18th is an excellent way to learn what you need to know to support honeybees,” continued Br. Shantamrita, “and we are delighted to have Kerry, who has a passion for teaching others about honeybees and beekeeping, sharing her extensive knowledge on this topic.”
