Who we are

About us

Swarm re-homing

APIJANDA is a community driven initiative based on education and holistic beekeeping practices. If you would like to meet us, join our swarm rescue teams, become part of our learning community, or sponsor a beehive by supporting us, write to us at apijanda[at]googlegroups.com

BEETIME Artist Residency

A space for creative research during which we aim to introduce the participants to a bee centred approach to beekeeping, and a regenerative approach to the landscape. We equally aim to inspire towards a re-connection with our natural, cultural and social environment, and explore self-organizing principles inspired by hive consciousness.

Socially engaged art projects

Designing and producing creative projects to engage communities with a sense of place, unique to their bioregion. Please get in touch with us if you wish to consider developing a relational art workshop / exhibition / project in your region, writing us to beetimers[at]gmail.com
