A Farm without Borders: Beekeeping in the City
What does it mean to be a beekeeper in the city and what role do we play in the larger urban ecosystem?
As part of this year’s ØKOUKA, join us for a talk about urban beekeeping, food production and the city as a shared landscape.
Where does a beekeeper’s “farm” begin and end when the bees forage across an entire city? Starting with a jar of honey, we’ll ask who actually produces it: the beekeeper, the bees, the flowers or the city itself?
We’ll explore the relationships between bees, people and the landscapes we share, and perhaps rethink what it means to be a beekeeper in the city.
The talk takes place during Innhøstingsdag at Gartneriet på Bygdø Kongsgård. So if you’re coming to harvest vegetables, take a break from the fields and join us for a different look at urban food production.
Free and open to everyone. No beekeeping experience needed – just curiosity.
