Our objective is to promote the art and skills of beekeeping in Indiana and throughout the world. By doing so, we preserve and improve the general environment in which we live, assist in providing better crop yield, provide high quality honey, and we do our part to preserve bees.

Missing the annual November Banquet is like not going to your sister’s wedding! Much work and energy is put into the arrangements, the food, and the speakers. We believe this year’s banquet will be an event you will not want to miss. You will not want to talk to one of your beekeeping friends a week after and wish you could turn back the time so you could attend.
