About Us

The York & District Beekeepers are a friendly and active Association who share a common interest in learning about and caring for bees.

Beekeeping is a fascinating and absorbing hobby but there can be problems for the beginner.  By joining a local beekeeping association you will have the opportunity to meet other beekeepers and gain from their experience.

Beekeeping also provides a never ending source of enjoyment and interest to an increasing number of people of all ages and gender – whatever the motive, and our Association exists to promote and advance the craft of beekeeping.

Now that you’ve found our website, why not contact us to find out more – you’ll be made very welcome!
