    Intro Beekeeping Training registration is now open. Each spring the San Francisco Beekeepers Association conducts a pair of classes for new and intermediate beekeepers. These classes are filled with the practical knowledge beekeepers need to keep bees healthy and alive.  They are $100 for the pair of classes and you must be a current club member or join to attend. Here's a link to join or renew. 

    And here's a link to more information about the classes.

    Note: In order to provide the best learning experience, we limit the training to 60 individuals.
