We are a group of beekeepers from the Peninsula and Middle Peninsula areas of Virginia. Members range from as far south as Hampton, to as far north as Middlesex, to as far east as Mathews and all points between. Our purposes are many:
*Enjoying the wonders of
nature
*Fostering the keeping, efficient management, and
preservation of honey bees
*Providing pollination for
local agriculture
*Informing members and our communities
of the ecological and economic benefits of honey bees
*Educating members in the science and techniques of
apiculture (Being "beekeepers" and not "bee-havers")
*Harvesting honey!
Regular meetings are held the 3rd Tuesday of each month, from 7 PM to 9 PM, in the Fellowship Hall of St. Luke's United Methodist Church in Yorktown, VA.
