‘Wilding’: Creating Regenerative Apian Networks

Apis Arborea

The ecological integrity of wild populations of honeybees (Apis Mellifera) is transforming the fundamentals of apiculture and conservation

The departure from normalcy due to climate emergency and accelerating extinction rates of all species opens the door to a re-evaluation and re-conceptualization of core belief systems and practices in beekeeping and conservation. This workshop will explore new vantages of the pioneering arboreal apicultural field and will outline a framework of innovative practices and strategies. It promotes the re-alignment of apiculture with the fundamentals of wild apian ecologies and ethics. With a focus on self-willed ecological processes, wilding becomes a driver tof change for the science of ecology and conservation. We will introduce the innovative concept of LocApiary (local watershed apiaries) and show how it can serve as a powerful resource towards a life-sustaining shift within apiculture. The workshop will provide resources for a deeper understanding of honeybees as a naturalized species and as a co-constituent of the wider pollinator community, and tools for designing apian networks with ecological and ethical integrity. It is a compass point for strategies beyond sustainability. The ecological integrity of wild populations of honeybees (Apis Mellifera) is transforming the fundamentals of apiculture and initiating a radical shift in thinking for beekeepers, conservationists, and scientists alike. As an evolving new reality within the apicultural field, wilding has become a driving force of an inquiry into and the creation of a new, holistic paradigm of apiculture and conservation. For beekeepers, conservationists, and anyone interested in a shifting apicultural paradigm.“In Wildness is the preservation of the world.” H.D. Thoreau
