2026 Medina Beekeepers Beginner Class - Tuesday

The Medina County Beekeepers holds an annual Beekeeping for Beginners Class in Feb & Mar each year. The class covers what to do before you get your bees, how much will it cost, what equipment is needed to keep bees, how to get started, basic care and feeding of honey bees, honey bee colony growth and development, management skills for summer, fall, winter and next spring, troubleshooting when something isn’t right, good neighbor tactics, and harvesting your crop.

We have two sessions in 2026. This is the Tuesday track sign-up. (Click here) if you meant to sign up for the Saturday track.) Classes will be Feb 24 and Mar 3, 10, 17 and 24 from 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm. Doors will open at 5:30 pm.

Cost for the class is $85 for an individual or $100 for a family. In addition to the class tuition, students receive a textbook, a one year membership in the Medina County Beekeepers Association and a variety of magazines and catalogs from the beekeeping industry. Pre-registration is strongly encouraged so we know how to prepare, but late registration will be available at the door as long as space is available. (Current MCBA members who have paid for and taken the class before may retake the class for free.)
