#14 Biodynamic Bee-Keeping

In this podcast we are talking about why bees are great and what differentiates biodynamic bee-keeping from other forms of apiculture. We talk about the fascination of the little insects and what they help us to develop in ourselves, our surrounding  landscapes and in the world. Dr. Johannes Wirz was the co-leader of the Research Institute at the Goetheanum in Dornach, Switzerland. He has a dissertation in molecular genetics at the University of Basel and does several projects on honeybee research. He is a member of the board at Mellifera e.V. in Germany and has profound experience in bee education, Goetheanum science, Anthroposophy and meditation. You want to know more about biodynamic bee-keeping and the work of the Natural Science Section at the Goetheanum? Book by Johannes Wirz and Norbert Poplau - Keeping Bees Simply and Respectfully: Apiculture with the Golden Hive : https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/keeping-bees-simply-and-respectfully-johannes-wirz/1139537278 Rudolf Steiner – the nine lectures on bees : https://rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA351/English/SGP1975/NinBee_index.html Book from David Heaf - The Bee-friendly Beekeeper: A Sustainable Approach The work of the Natural Science Section and their seminars and workshops can be found here: https://science.goetheanum.org/en/
