The purpose being to promote beekeeping and assist members and others in maintaining hives and learning about bees. We are an affiliate of the NC State Beekeepers Association and lend support to the NC Zoo and its honeybee exhibit. Our mission is for public awareness of the honey bee and its role in the environment in which we live. To also bring awareness of the necessity in helping the honey bee survive and teach them our love and passion of this little creature.

We hold a monthly bee educational focused meeting at Forsyth County Cooperative Extension Building the first Saturday of each month except for January and July. Guests are welcome, just bring your favorite food to share and enjoy some food and fellowship. We schedule a speaker to enlighten us on some aspect of beekeeping.
