We offer the most complete set of beekeeping classes in the Corridor. Our beginner beekeeping series will take newcomers through their first year and well into their second season. All classes use methods and techniques that have been tried and proven throughout the years by local beekeepers in the cedar valley area. Our instructors include perennial beekeepers, educators, and authors Shane Bixby, Master Beekeeper Erin Miller along with IHPA's 2013 educational award winner Bob Wolff. Our team of instructors has over 30 years of beekeeping and teaching experience. They are also active members in the East Central Iowa Beekeepers Association, the Iowa Honey Producers (Shane, District 2 Director), and the American Beekeeping Federation.  They strive to continue their own education to keep up to date on all new aspects of beekeeping. Start your beekeeping journey with one of our proven classes.
