ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR

As the founding Bee Steward of REBEL44, AJ Gardner serves as a conduit and voice for the regenerative stewardship of honeybees and pollinators throughout the Snoqualmie Valley region. Our unique, evidenced approach to stewardship has increased the vitality and environmental resilience of honeybees, empowering them to thrive as interactive superorganisms within our food system and broader ecosystems. We sustainably harvest a radiant spectrum of premium raw, organic honeys via targeted nectar flows throughout the spring and summer seasons and are honored to share these sacred gifts and nature intelligence with our valued local community and beyond.
