Beekeeping introductory course 

The Bennington County Beekeepers’ Club is offering an Introduction to Beekeeping course six Thursday nights: January 29th through March 5th; 7-8:30 PM. Later in the spring there will be a visit to a bee yard.

 The course will cover honeybee biology and health, pests and diseases, hive management, and how to get started setting up your own bee yard and basic beekeeping principles. 

The cost of the course is $25 per person, which includes a one-year family membership in the Bennington County Beekeepers’ Club. 

Attendees will need to purchase or locate the textbook on their own. 

Classes will take place in-person at the Bennington Free Library on Silver St. in Bennington.
