Are you looking for a list of beekeeping associations in the US or Canada?   Perhaps you needs assistance with a swarm, or maybe you are wanting to locate your local association?

List of beekeeping associations in the US and Canada

You may need some assistance to remove a honey bee swarm or nest.  If this is the case, please contact your nearest beekeeping association from the list below to see if anyone is available to assist with a honey bee colony.  Contact a beekeeper first, NOT pest control.  The beekeepers may be able to assist you, and hopefully without harm to the bees.

On the other hand, you may want to locate a beekeeping association, perhaps because you have decided you would like to become a beekeeper - in which case, a beekeeping association is a great place to start, make contacts, and learn from other beekeepers.

If you become aware of any changes to these details, I would appreciate it if you would contact me, and let me know.  Thank you.
