This is the official website for the Oregon State Beekeepers Association, a non-profit organization dedicated to the well-being of honey bees and to the fields of beekeeping, apiculture, research, and education. We are a diverse bunch of individuals who share a fascination for the honey bee and its workings. Our members range from full-time beekeepers and pollinators with thousands of hives to hobbyists involved in back-yard beekeeping. Some members do not even keep bees, but are fascinated by the six legs and four wings of Apis mellifera. This web site offers opportunities for visitors to learn, communicate or become acquainted with the products and services we offer. By clicking the buttons to the left you can ask a question, join in on discussions with beekeepers on the forum, find out when beekeeping events and class will take place, read our past newsletters or find out the time and location of beekeeper meetings near you. If you can't find what you are looking for, please contact the Webkeeper and we will see what we can do to provide you the information you need. |

The program is designed to address three levels, the first of which, the Certified Apprentice Beekeeper, is scheduled to begin in early 2012. More information may be found at their web site: www.oregonmasterbeekeeper.org The email address for questions is info@oregonmasterbeekeeper.org or carolyn.breece@oregonstate.edu
