The York County Beekeepers Association is a Local Chapter of the Maine State Beekeepers Association. We plan to meet once a month to enhance our own abilities and knowledge of honey bees and the products of the hive. You don’t have to have bees to be a member. The clubs Regular Meetings are in the months of September through June. Our meetings are presently being held in the Jr. High School Library, in Sanford. We meet on the 2nd Monday of each month from 6:30 to 8:30 PM. Through the Summer and Fall months of June, July, August and September, we plan on having a Picnic and Open Hive Sessions. It’s a great eye-opening, hands-on activity.
We intend to have a mentoring program for new beekeepers, so a new beekeeper has a more experienced beekeeper to confer with.
Our dues are $4.00 for an Individual membership in the York County Chapter. The dues or new membership can be turned in at a regular meeting or sent to the clubs Membership Director, Peggy Pride. She can be contacted at: peggy@beepride.com
We would also urge you to consider membership in the MSBA.
