In wilderness lies the preservation of the world.... An awesome video from @apisarborea
The unique morphology of comb and bees in the natural environment of a log hive - including the micro habitat zones on the bottom of the nesting site.

We have bees! If you’ve been following us, you’ll know we installed this log beehive without any inhabitants.
We lathered it up with lemongrass oil, waited, and hoped for a swarm to call it home. And voila! Happy dance!

Our first log beehive has been installed on the farm!
We are moving away from the commercial langstroth hive used by most beekeepers and are opting for a habitat that more closely mimics nature, where bees have been shown to live healthier and longer. Right now it does not house bees but we hope a swarm will call it home this early Spring. Special thanks to Michael Thiele with Apis Arborea for these beautiful natural hives. #apisarborea #gaiabees #biomimicry #biomimicrydesign #beehives #loghives #honeybees #wildbees #beesinaforest #farmstay #farmexperience #farmstayusa #findyouryonder #yondersteward

O mini doc Rewilding Honeybees destaca o trabalho do apicultor selvagem Michael Thiele.
Em 2017 Michael fundou a Apis Arborea, voltada à reintegração das colônias de abelhas à natureza a partir de uma abordagem holística e ecológica. Disponível no Vimeo mediante locação. #apisarborea #michaelthiele #rewildinghoneybees
I’ve received many inquiries asking if we have bees at Patina Farm. We do!
We decided to add bee logs instead of traditional bee frames because they are more similar to the hollowed out trees where bees prefer to live so there is more chance for success. We bought our bee logs from Michael Thiele at www.apisarborea.com You can learn more about bee logs on his website.

Bees in trees!!! #apisarborea
Agreed.

Further fascinating bee studies with @apisophia this afternoon.
Saturated with the enigma that the Bees are!

Sometimes there are bees in trees and the tree's gotta go.
The colony was safely relocated to a nearby farm and only a few stings were had by all.

True power means harmony, not physical force. The honeybee knows how to use the power of the divine feminine energy to serve the colony.

and then
when ground breaks
and the land beneath your feet
is no longer
solid
earth
it swirls and swarms as liquid does
an optical illusion
the heart drops out of the cavity of the chest
belabored breaths
heavy steps
and where the whirlwind strikes
it says
“collapse.
pour
here.
let your tears rain down
beneath the wild hive of bees.
inside the old oak tree
there you’ll find me,
the balm for any worldly wound —
is your own soul’s honey.

Here to learn. Here to be open to new ideas about being in right relationship with the unseen forces of life.
Head exploding 🤯 Heart too💓 So many very cool people sharing their knowledge and experience- so generously. 🙏🏼🌀⚛️🦠🌌✨🌗🌱🐂🔄 #biodynamicfarming #biodynamicconference #malibucompost #barefootfarmer #apisarborea
Friends and family! On October 7th, myself and Michael Thiele @apisophia , of Gaia Bees and Apis Arborea, will be hosting a workshop at Green Gulch Farm in Muir Beach, CA.
We will explore the ancient practice of arboreal apiculture as well as craft traditional log hives on site. Last year's workshop produced hives which are now populated by feral colonies that are thriving and we are excited for another go!
For more information and how to register go to apisarborea.com
Check out the site, our team and our mission. Look forward to seeing you there 🐝🌲
