KBA Bee School 2023 will be held on February 18, 25, March 4, 11, and 18th at Viles Arboretum 153 Hospital Street in Augusta.

Our 5 week beginner bee class encompasses hands-on learning with open hive days, a honey extraction class in September and a winterizing class in November, so you get to experience a full beekeeping year. 

We will go over beekeeping basics, hive management throughout the year, pest management and bee biology along with how to make your own equipment. 

All class material will be provided at the first class. Cost is $80.00. For more information check out our Facebook page at Kennebec Beekeeper Association.
