There will eventually be six classes. The actual Power Points are too large (even Zip compressed) to be posted; you can request them by e-mailing MEBW. The Power Points need editing before use. The school uses Storey’s Guide to Keeping Honey Bees as the class text. 3 Field sessions in support of the class should be scheduled. Suggestions for revisions and/or additions welcomed.

MSBA CLUBS - Websites & Facebook

This is a list of Maine State Beekeepers Association (MSBA) Clubs as listed on the MSBA web site with some additional information compiled by MEBW..  MEBW encourages all beekeepers in the state to belong to the MSBA.  You don’t need to be a member of a club to join the MSBA.

If there is no club in your area, start one!  Contact the MSBA President for more information.  (This article may be some help.)

Please thank the people responsible for creating these pages and keeping them updated!  Their work is what keeps this information flowing.
