Beekeeping Workshop

There is a lot of activities happening at Foxhollow Farm this Saturday. There will be a Beekeeping workshop, Lunch at the Farm Store, and a Ramp hike/cooking demo with Sherry Hurley from Farm to Fork Catering! Facebook message us to sign up for the Beekeeping workshop or Ramp cooking Demo (special $30/car load!)

Also join us for a film viewing of "Queen of the Sun," a documentary of Gunther's life long dedication to the health of the Honeybee, on April 1st, 7pm with Gunther there to answer questions and chat with folks. $50.00 donation with all proceeds going towards Spikenard Farm Honeybee Sanctuary.

“QUEEN OF THE SUN: What Are the Bees Telling Us?” is a profound, alternative look at the global bee crisis from Taggart Siegel, director of THE REAL DIRT ON FARMER JOHN. Taking us on a journey through the catastrophic disappearance of bees and the mysterious world of the beehive, this engaging and ultimately uplifting film weaves an unusual and dramatic story of the heartfelt struggles of beekeepers, scientists and philosophers from around the world including Michael Pollan, Gunther Hauk and Vandana Shiva. Together they reveal both the problems and the solutions.
