Are you interested in beekeeping but not sure where to start? Now is the time to get all the answers to your questions!

How much does beekeeping cost? How much time will it take? How much honey will I get? How important are honey bees for pollination? Can I keep bees in town? Learn about all this and more in our beginner's class.

This session is free and open to all. No registration required.

The New River Valley Beekeepers Association was founded in 1998 to aid local beekeepers in managing their hives through outreach, education and networking. Monthly meetings are held throughout the year to provide information and foster relationships.
