Educational Workshop: “Bee Guide”

Did you know that bees can be excellent guides to the natural world? Wherever bees thrive, healthy and vibrant plants flourish, making the bee a true symbol of nature’s quality and balance.

Join us for the educational workshop “Bee Guide”, where we will explore the unique connection between medicinal herbs, bees, and human well-being. Participants will learn why bees are attracted to certain plants, how these plants contribute to our health, and how nature’s gifts can help improve our overall quality of life.

During the workshop, phytotherapist Gytis Leliukas will tell us about the benefits of nature-based wellness, including the use of medicinal herbs and bee products in everyday life. We will discuss their role in supporting both physical and emotional well-being, learn how to recognize valuable plants, and uncover the hidden stories of meadows and herbs. Participants will also discover why bees are much more than honey producers – they are essential guardians of healthy ecosystems and important allies in promoting human health.
