Victorian Apiarists' Association

We can help you

The Victorian Apiarists' Association can help all beekeepers regardless of how many bee hives they own.

Whether you are a hobbyist beekeeper with one hive in the backyard, a semi-commercial beekeeper wishing to take the next step towards becoming fully financially dependent on beekeeping, or a full time commercial beekeeper - we can help you.

Beginners Hands-on Beekeeping Course

Sunday 6th October and Sunday 20^th October 2019 (9am to 5pm)

Subsequent courses in February and March 2020 will focus on beekeeping during summer, autumn and winter.

The cost of the course is $300 which includes course notes, a memory stick of beekeeping resources, a reference book (“BEE Agskills”, New South Wales Department of Primary Industries), and morning and afternoon tea.
