Bi-Annual Meetings
We host biannual meetings, early March and early November, to inform beekeepers about new things and get opinions on beekeeping. Our meetings are open to all interested in beekeeping and provide a good way to interact with and get to know beekeepers from around the state. We sponsor talented speakers about current honey bee related items and more.
