“Apis Arborea” is an attempt to redefine our relationship with bees and to create a new paradigm of caring for them. We will look at the reemergence of ancient and traditional ways of apiculture, such as the “Zeidler”, the craft of caring for bees in living trees. Rewilding habitat and nest restoration for honeybees is becoming
increasingly essential for honeybees to survive. 
As wild bees survive in non-managed ecosystems and nest sites, they represent a resource for new strategies for contemporary apiculture and a fundamental shift in bee stewardship. More info at the upcoming new web resource at www.apisarborea.com
During the workshop, we will build ‘honey bee nests’ in logs, using traditional and contemporary tools. Wear layers. We will be outside for most of the day.
