![]() Membership has many benefits and supports our educational mission. Become a member! We welcome all at our monthly club meetings, held at 10AM on the first Sunday of the month. They feature a guest speaker and provide an opportunity to share expertise. Here is a sampling of our wide range of classes. | ![]() We love bees and are eager to share our passion. In additional to our classes focused on training aspiring beekeepers, Long Beach Beekeepers spreads the word at one-time and recurring events. Observation hives - one frame of honeycomb and bees from a working hive - enable us to show the inner workings of life inside the hive. Our bees have traveled to preschools, home schools and elementary schools; neighborhood associations and street fairs; Girl Scout troops, garden clubs and Earth Day events. If you have a group that would like to learn about bees, email us at contact@longbeachbeekeepers.org. | RESOURCESBe a responsible beekeeper and a good neighbor by complying with local beekeeping ordinances. Beekeeping equipment maybe purchased at local shops and online. Here are some reputable outlets that carry hive boxes, frames, protective gear, honey bees, honey extraction tools, jars and more. Bee swarming is a natural phase and an important part of the reproduction process. The club does not remove swarms, but we can point you in the right direction for some reputable beekeepers. |
