Welcome

You are viewing the Chattahoochee Valley Beekeepers Association NEW website. It is our hope that we can conveniently share beekeeping news, ideas, suggestions, and knowledge through this avenue. Come to our next meeting, which is listed over in the right-hand column, and listen to an educational program, discuss pertinent information, and network with other bee enthusiasts.

This website is first and foremost a tool. With it, our plan is to work together for the enrichment of everyone's knowledge as well as to gain membership, promote networking, and to pass on essential information for the continuation of beekeeping in the Chattahoochee Valley area.

We meet on the second Monday of every other month, and welcome anyone who is interested in learning about bees. Many of our members have vast amounts of information through experience, study, and observations, while others are eager learners. Everyone, however, is willing to share whatever information they have. To find out more about the basic organization of our group, visit the "About CVBA" section of this website.

Hi there! I'm Ringo, current president of CVBA. I would personally like to invite you to attend one of our meetings to see what we are all about. Beekeepers are a necessary asset to our environment and we would like to see our membership grow. Personally, I have benefitted tremendously from this organization through receiving good advice, hands-on help, and fellowship with other beekeepers. You will be glad you made the first move toward becomming a beekeeper. Submit your contact information in the "Contact Us" section along with a brief message, get on our newsletter list (in the right-hand column), and plan on attending our next meeting. See you there!

So, explore the various facets of the magnificent honey bee, and learn about one of the world's most useful substances known to man - HONEY!

Below are some photos of a recent bee removal. The bees are alive and well... thanks to Doug Roberts, Steve Slappy, Betty Beegle, Freddy Beegle, and Katie Roberts. As you can see, it is forty-five feet in the air on the outside of a boy scout climbing tower.
