Mohawk Valley Beekeepers 

Our goals are to:

1. Encourage better and responsible beekeeping methods among beekeepers through educational programs and the compilation and dissemination of useful and worthwhile information to members for optimum success in the pursuit of beekeeping.

2. Educate the general public regarding the beneficial impact bees have in the pollination of fruits, vegetables, and flowers, and to endeavor to reassure the public that keeping honeybees is a highly advantageous activity. Provide educational programs designed for improved promotion of beekeeping, and products of the hive.

3. Provide a forum to facilitate cooperation and discussion among members to improve beekeeping skills, encourage new beekeepers, maintain friendly and helpful relations with stake holders who are working to better the welfare of the beekeeping interests, and provide those interested in bees the opportunity to gather together for fellowship on a regular basis.
