ABOUT THE CLUB
AND HOW WE CAN HELP

The La Crosse Area Beekeepers Association has been in the La Crosse Wisconsin area for over 20 plus years, creating a loyal and friendly body of beekeepers from La Crosse and surrounding counties.

With over 50 beekeepers that raise bees for love and honey, most of our members are small scale beekeepers with 2 to 10 hives. Some members have up to 50 hives, while a few manage hundreds of hives.

Our goal is to help our members get started and to become better Beekeepers. We are here to learn and to share our experience. We rely on bees for the pollination of our plants, so please get involved! We are here to help you.

How we can help you:

Mentor beginning beekeepers and support experienced ones with tested information and practices.
Answer your questions on getting started in beekeeping.
Share information about problems facing bees as well as possible solutions and our experience.
Help develop markets for beekeeping products.
Provide awareness of all state and national laws related to beekeeping and the production and marketing of honey and wax.
Promote understanding between the beekeepers of the state, the nation, and the world.
Promote public awareness of honey bee's importance for pollination.
Foster interactions with the other members of the agricultural community.
