The modern environmental crisis is a wake-up call for fundamental change and innovative ideas. Apiarist Michael Thiele will be joining us to discuss ways to draw inspiration from the natural behaviors of honeybees. These life-giving pollinators are not only a keystone species, they’re cultural innovators too. Michael’s beekeeping vision restores complex ecological systems and draws on bees’ instinctual wisdom to create more resilient pollinator communities. In this presentation, Michael will introduce his “Apis Arborea” beekeeping project. He’ll be giving examples from current projects and sharing the craft of traditional tree apiculture.
