The Sacred Life of Bees on May 21
At the Homecoming Farm Garden with Elizabeth Keihm, Executive Director
In this very popular program, Elizabeth tells us about the honeybee apiary of Homecoming Farm with its 11 hives. While most people know that honeybees pollinate crops and produce honey, they do not know that bees and/or honey appear in almost every religious text. Come, explore what it is about – the bee that engages mystics, saints, farmers, and honey-lovers.

Here are some photos from the event: Participants look at Demonstration Hive while Rich our Beekeeper and Elizabeth from the farm explain. Note the bee with the pink spot on her back is the Queen of the Hive…The Queen Bee of Queen of the Rosary!
