Join us for Green Drinks, an environmental networking event that we hold in Maplewood every other month. There will be organic beer and wine, light appetizers, and a honey tasting.
Our speaker will be Tammy Toad Ryan, a local beekeeper who will teach us about bees and beekeeping and treat us to a honey tasting.
Tammy Toad Ryan started keeping bees in British Columbia in 2007 because of her innate curiosity in how to work with nature in a harmonious way. Being told that one could only raise bees by feeding them sugar and chemicals she decided to begin her own path of study. Tammy is studying treatment free beekeeping and is working on growing her apiary in NJ. Tammy views beekeeping from a holistic model and enjoys finding lasting ways of relating with the little creatures. As well as keeping bees, she has been practicing and studying biodynamic agriculture for over a decade and is currently starting a 5 acre farm in Clifton, NJ for City Green.
