EAST CENTRAL WI BEEKEEPERS ASSOCIATION
Welcome to the ECWBA!
Our club was founded in 2009 for the purpose of educating beekeepers and the public about honey bees. The primary mission of the ECWBA is to educate and inform beekeepers about honeybees, beekeeping, and honeybee related products. Our secondary mission includes providing opportunities for beekeeper networking and community outreach programs.
Any adult person can hold membership in the ECWBA by paying annual dues. The yearly membership is effective from January to December. Members will receive the club e-newsletter and the right to vote at meetings. Meetings are held the 3rd Saturday of every month from 9:30-11:30 at the Caestecker Public Library in Green Lake, WI, unless otherwise specified. Check our calendar or Facebook page for updates.
