Mission

The Oregon State Beekeepers Association is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the well-being of honey bees and to the fields of beekeeping, apiculture, research, and education. The association is organized exclusively for charitable, education, and/or scientific purposes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Our stated purpose is to unite the beekeepers of Oregon in an effort to improve beekeeping in the state.

The 2023 Oregon State Fair has now ended as we move into the last months of this fine year. Thanks to everyone whose contributions once again made it a such a fun and memorable event!

Thank everyone for our successful 2023 Fall Conference! Information for 2024 will be posted when it becomes available. We look forward to again sharing time, stories, knowledge, and ongoing learning.
