Meetings

We meet on the second Thursday of each month at 7pm except in August (we have a picnic) and December (we have a party).  We are now doing hybrid meetings so you can choose to come in person or participate via Zoom.  We meet at our new location, Creator Lutheran Church, 13250 SE Sunnyside Rd in Clackamas. Everyone is welcome to attend! 

Members can find recordings of past meetings under the Member Pages tab.

Membership Application

Club Apiary

 We had our last educational event for the year at the PMBA "Sweet Ass Learning Apiary" at the Oregon Donkey Sanctuary. This was a fantastic first year and we are already planning more events next year. It will be a great way to get hands-on experience with honeybees. The program is designed for beginning to intermediate beekeepers to learn about hive management strategies for the month. This is a casual, loosely structured gathering intended to provide a learning experience in a relaxed setting. 


Upcoming events

Holiday Party

Save the date for December 12th for our annual holiday pot luck party.  It will be held in place of our normal meeting.  Bring your favorite jar of honey for our honey tasting contest.  There will be lots of prizes as well. Emails to club members have been sent for registration. But you can also find details and register here.

CLUB Extractor

 Our new extractor was put to good use this year.  It is now in storage and will be available next year for club members from mid June through September. We also have a 3 frame hand crank extractor, an uncapping tub, filters and heated uncapping knives for check out during that same time.   Learn more about it HERE
