Sweet Medicine From The Hive- Online Course (EARLY ENROLLMENT NOW OPEN)

Sweet Medicine from the Hive is an online course where I bring together two things I have spent years working with and teaching—honeybees and herbal medicine.

I’m Kaylee Richardson, beekeeper, herbalist, and author of The Beekeeper’s Apothecary, and throughout this course I’ll take you from the hive to the home apothecary. We’ll explore honey, beeswax, propolis, and bee pollen—how the bees create them, how they’re used within the colony, their traditional uses, and how we can work with them in our own homes.

Then we’ll get hands-on. Through step-by-step video tutorials, I’ll show you how to make herb-infused honey, herbal salves, and other sweet medicines using the beautiful resources our bees provide.

The entire course is online and self-paced, so you can work through it when it fits into your life. And you’ll have lifetime access, which means you can come back to the videos, recipes, and demonstrations anytime you need them.

My hope is that by the end, you don’t just have a few new recipes—you have a deeper understanding of the hive and the confidence to bring these incredible gifts into your own home apothecary.

I especially like that last thought for your course because it makes the promise bigger than “you'll learn to make salve.”You're teaching people understanding and confidence, which fits The Beekeeper's Apothecary really well.
