    Join us at the PMBA "Sweet Ass  Learning Apiary" at the Oregon Donkey Sanctuary 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.  It is located at:

    15900 S Thayer Rd, Oregon City, OR 97045


    The Oregon Donkey Sanctuary is kind enough to let us use their land for our apiary.  They do have a locked electronic gate at the entrance to keep the Donkeys in. We have a 15 minute window to get into the sanctuary from 10:45-11:00. Plan to get there during that time window as we cannot let people in early or late.

    Weather permitting, we open hives so bring your bee suit and gloves. Minimum PPE to attend is a veil

    Signed waivers are required to attend. Please do this ahead of time:
