Situated in Floyd, VA in the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Spikenard Farm and Honeybee Sanctuary aims to restore the health and vitality of the honeybee worldwide.
Since founding Spikenard Farm in 2006, Gunther Hauk and his wife Vivian have been actively spreading their vision of sustainable biodynamic beekeeping.
The Spikenard Honeybee Sanctuary provides on-site workshops, lectures, consulting and publications. This work is possible through the support of many foundations and individuals around the country.
Spikenard Farm and the Hauks have been featured in the movies Queen of the Sun and Vanishing of the Bees.
