EVENTS and CALENDAR, Florida State Beekeepers Association

EVENTS and CALENDAR

A calendar of events has been established in cooperation with Bee Culture Magazine, which includes beekeeping activities not only in Florida, but elsewhere. Many local events will no longer be listed individually on our HOME PAGE, but may be available here on the EVENTS and CALENDAR page or under each applicable local association on our LOCAL ASSOCIATIONS page.  Always consult the global calendar to find out what is going on in Florida and elsewhere. Routine monthly meetings are also found on the LOCAL ASSOCIATIONS page for the growing number of local associations. To send items for inclusion, e-mail the Calendar Master
