From Hive to Smoke
Join me, a guardian of bees, for a grounding experience where the sacred gifts of the hive meet the ancient art of incense making. You will learn to craft your own incense using propolis – an aromatic resin created by the bees, treasured for centuries by various ancient cultures in ritual, medicine and myth. Propolis (“bee glue”) is known for its antimicrobial, healing, and preservative properties. Blending it with local, powerful plants and wild botanicals, you will create fragrant offerings, imbued with bee magic and healing properties to burn in ceremony, meditation, or simple moments of stillness at home.
As we work, we’ll wander through the history, folklore, and symbolism of bees – from their place as messengers between worlds, to their mystical significance in sacred rites across cultures.
You’ll leave not only with your intentionally handmade incense cones and sticks, but also a deeper connection to the magic, wisdom, and generosity of our nectar gathering friends.
All materials are provided, and no previous experience is needed - just curiosity, creativity, and a love for people, our planet and of course our pollinators!
This workshop creates and celebrates the connection to our land and bees. A chance to slow down, create with meaning, and carry home something truly unique that you’ve made with your own hands.
