Thursday, April 18, 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm Eastern – Native Edibles for Cities, Online

Whether you’re interested in your health, sustainability, or simple pleasure, growing native edibles is a skill worth cultivating. Native edibles can feed you (and the rest of the ecosystem) regardless of your available space, and can be planted in shady corners, container gardens, and other small spaces. Join Dan Jaffe Wilder online on April 18 at 6 pm Eastern to learn about species of native edibles that can be grown wherever you can find (or put) soil. Native Plant Trust members $17, nonmembers $20. Register at http://www.nativeplanttrust.org/events/native-edibles-cities/ Image courtesy of Forager Chef.

Please note: We do not make video or audio recordings of classes or programs available after the fact, because we believe education is interactive, with instructors and students building a community and culture of learning. Some programs may be recorded strictly for instructor-training purposes. Please visit this page to review this and other FAQs about our policies.


Saturday, April 27, 10:00 am – 12:00 noon – Mindful Beekeeping

Beekeeper and founder of Bee Resonance Project Asher Silverwolff takes participants on a grounding and calming journey into the inner world of bees on Saturday, April 27, from 10 a.m. to noon at Berkshire Botanical Garden in West Stockbridge. Participants will experience meditation, show and tell, touch and feel and lots of time for Q&A. Asher will share stories of his relationship with bees, how it helps him relax and stay focused, what the year ahead looks like, and explore together as a group how the Bee Resonance Project might support those interested in taking up the mantle of beekeeping or already keeping bees.

Bee Resonance Project is an organization focused on connecting people to themselves and nature by tuning into bees. They manage beehives on behalf of farms, educational organizations and private clients. They also host educational experiences and training for schools, companies and community organizations. $25 for BBG members, $40 for nonmembers.
