A sanctuary is a place that wholly supports the health and positive transformation of the being for whom the sanctuary is created. Spikenard Honeybee Sanctuary was founded in 2006 to support the honeybees through the current crisis, but it also serves the needs of nature-deprived humans as well. These two crises are as inseparable as bees and flowers, and we cannot correctly address the honeybee crisis without also addressing the needs of their caretakers.
This season, our workshops have been filled with enthusiastic participants who are coming to Spikenard to learn how to manifest a different relationship with nature--one based on love rather than exploitation. Deriving our methods from a health-based philosophy and a true yearning to understand more and more the complicated and beauteous nature of the honeybee is what has allowed love to truly manifest in the Sanctuary. With abundant flowers in bloom, we continue to plant and transform the landscape in support of the bees and in support of all the humans who come to visit us.
Thank you for your interest and continued support of our work! We are so overwhelmingly grateful for the individuals who recognize the necessity of this work--that it may live and manifest on Earth is truly due to your generous support!
Please help us again by giving what you can towards our blooming educational programs, allowing students to come for workshops from near and far and then spread this knowledge and enthusiasm across the globe.
