Welcome to the Honeybee Folk School at the

“We recognize that now, more than ever, it is time to see ourselves as part of the whole, working together towards a common goal for a future that is regenerative, creative, and connected.” — Anna Mathis, Manager, Innovation & Learning Design at NBCCD
COURSES & GATHERINGS
Three times a year, Honeybee Folk School will host gatherings, in a festival format, where makers of all levels will come together for inspiring, creative workshops and courses. We will have half-day to multi-day courses in subjects, including knife-making, basketry, weaving on a loom, natural dyes, cheese-making, urban gardening, Wolastoquey language lessons, permaculture, and more.
Courses take place at the New Brunswick College of Craft & Design in scenic downtown Fredericton, in our state-of-the-art studios. Workshops will also take place around the city with partner locations: Odell Park, Hayes Teaching Farm, and Kings Landing.
Honeybee Folk School also offers multi-week evening classes throughout the year, beginning the week after our seasonal gatherings have come to a close.
