MEmbershipThere are so many great reasons to join PMBA, including:
Bee Day!Thank you all for coming out and participating in our annual Bee Day! It's always one of the highlights of the year. Thank you to the Hansens for once again hosting this event at the Foothills Honey Company. It was sure great to see so many new beekeepers getting a chance to see the bees! Also a shout out to Andony Melathopoulos and John Rockrohr for great lectures!
DonateWe are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and all funds raised go to honey bee education and research.
Upcoming events
Dead OUT or Disease?If you have a colony that you think may have a disease or has died out, we have trained club members who are willing to help you sort it out. Contact us here | November MeetingFor our November meeting, we are going to have 2 speakers. First will be Jen Larsen, the Program Coordinator of the Oregon State Master Beekeeper program.
