VAA Melbourne Section

The aim of the VAA Melbourne Section beekeeping group is to provide support and advice to beekeepers, particularly those in urban environments. Members of the VAA are automatically members of the VAA Melbourne Section!


All beekeepers and prospective beekeepers, particularly those in Melbourne and surrounding areas, are welcome to participate in our activities. You don't need to be a member to attend our meetings.

WHAT WE DO

  • We run meetings at 7pm on the last Thursday of the month (except for December).
    Meetings take place at the Church Hall, 1 The Avenue, Surrey Hills, VIC 3172 (plenty of parking is available at the rear of the church). 
  • We deliver courses, events and workshops throughout the year.
  • We liaise with and support the Victorian Apiarists’ Association.
