Sweetness and Light: Bela's Bees Honey and Beeswax Harvest Workshop

Shoresh inspires and empowers our community to take care of the earth by connecting people, land, and Jewish tradition.  Through nature-based Jewish education, healthy food production for vulnerable community members, environmental action, and sustainable Jewish products, we offer community members meaningful opportunities to be responsible stewards of the world around us.Serving the communities of Southern Ontario, Shoresh operates out of the Kavanah Garden in Vaughan, Bela Farm in Hillsburg, Maxie's Garden in Kensington Market, and through schools, synagogues, camps, and community organizations throughout the Greater Toronto Area.Grounded in Canadian soil, Shoresh gets community members back to their Jewish roots!

Shoresh

With immense gratitude to our honey bees, the flowers at Bela Farm and the Almighty creator of this awe-some world, we invite you to join us at beautiful Bela Farm for a day-long, hands-on honey harvesting and wax melting workshop. Together we will study what Jewish texts have to say about honey, extract the honey from the hive to thousands of glass jars just in time for Rosh Hashana. We will also be tending to our solar-powered wax melter to melt the beeswax into a form that we can make candles with. All participants will receive a small jar of honey and lots of free tasting. Please bring a picnic lunch, snacks, bathing suit, towel and clothes to get sticky in.
