100% of recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp felt private.

* It is a well known fact that beekeepers live longer and healthier lives than other people. In our experience, when we open the cover on a vigorous hive we encounter a potent aerosol containing the most amazing scents from all of the treasures the bees are cultivating, such as essential oils from flowers, propolis and honey. The connection we have with these fascinating creatures also brings a feeling of gratitude and well-being. We want to provide a similar opportunity for you in a safe space within our medicinal apiary and small farm called New Earth Gardens. * It’s unique to find beehive air therapy & bee beds in North America and we are happy to offer this right here in Michigan. Located in a rural setting, nestled between the Canadian and Chippewa Lakes, countless other bodies of water, state forests, Amish communities and farms. Relax in this serene honeybee cabin, being very close to, yet separated from the bees by metal screens in the bee bed air vents. Observe the activity in the apiary and woodlands through a large window. Meditate, listen to or play music, or allow yourself to drift off to sleep. * The environment inside a beehive is one of the most clean and healthy spaces found in nature. It is anti-microbial, anti-viral, anti-fungal and full of negative ions. The bee hive air permeates up through metal screen covered holes in the beds into the cabin filling it with wonderful fragrance. There are four colonies in each bed with populations averaging 240,000 bees per bed. The hum can be mesmerizing and creates a micro massage that can be healing in itself. The colony health is kept optimal and we plant an abundance of medicinal plants in our gardens for the bees to create the most beneficial quality of air inside the cabin. We also offer special breathing masks connected to a gentle forced air device that draws air through a tube from directly inside the hive for a more concentrated dosage of beehive air! * Included with Beehive air therapy and bee beds: your own respiratory apitherapy mask with one way valve * Access to the gardens, electricity including a small sound system, composting toilet, propane grill, camp fire pit, outdoor sink with running water are available for use. * Add-ons: Guided beekeeping tour, Sound & Reiki therapy, HennaThis site is tucked into the edge of a wooded area, within the lightly curious company of our flock of Jacob sheep. Have a close encounter with the heritage flock as they graze in the same field or request they be ushered to other pastures. (They are very timid and will avoid your approach). Prepare a stellar meal or warm beverage with the propane grill/stovetop. Golden (or char) your marshmallows over a fire pit near the structure, with plenty of firewood to do the job. Wash up with clean, running water available at an outdoor sink. Basic pots and pans, coffee French press, cutting board, plates, cups, bowls and utensils available for your use, however, housekeeping will not be interrupting your solitude to clean. A basic composting toilet is on site. You are invited to relax in a hammock under the canopy of trees, overlooking the farm and surrounding agrarian environment. Meander up to the garden or into the larger apiary, with additional bee interactions available with our head beekeeper) We kindly request that any gates be shut behind you, should the sheep think to claim you as their new shepherd.

Very nice weekend with the bees

Aaron’s Bee ~n~ bee

I had a really peaceful and productive writing and reading solo retreat weekend here. The smell and sound of the hive is incredible and difficult to describe; the outside space around the cabin is also very nice, and I spent a lot of time there, but I kept finding myself going back in to hang out with the bees. It was a hot weekend, but the window and a small fan kept it really comfortable, and the fan was quiet enough I could still hear the bees. The outdoor kitchen is perfectly set up, and the hosts were incredibly kind and helpful. I'm definitely looking forward to another visit.

Weekend Above the Hive

Aaron’s Bee ~n~ bee

Weekend Above the Hive The first thing I did when I arrived was turn off the AC. It was hot , Michigan-summer hot, but I hadn't driven out to this little cabin on stilts, tucked at the back of my friends' farm, to sit in climate-controlled silence. Each bed here has small holes cut into it, so you can hear the hive living just beneath you. I lay down, put my ear to one, and listened. At one point I shifted just right so I could see through the holes and through the screens into the hive itself. Golden late-day sunlight was spilling in through the entrance, catching the wings of the bees as they scurried in and out. Such a small, ordinary miracle, and one of the most beautiful things I saw all weekend. I tried the hive air mask too, breathing in the scent straight from the colony, nothing like honey, more mineral and warm, and it caught me off guard in the best way. I did my first meditation right there, hive breath and hive sound as my only guides, kicking off a weekend of solitude I'd been looking forward to for a long time. The days took their own rhythm. I brought three books and finished two, plus an audiobook I listened to while lying flat over the hives. My Shakti mat came out for a session that, laced with the hum below, was some of the most soothing meditation I've done. I cooked over the fire and in the sweet little outdoor kitchen, played music, journaled more than I have in months.
