WHO WE ARE

Plymouth County Beekeepers Association, “PCBA,” is a non-profit organization established in 1977. We are dedicated to the support of local agriculture and to educating the public about beekeeping through our school and participation in local fairs and festivals.

PCBA focuses on education, agriculture, and stewardship through many of the public outreach programs the club participates in and provides throughout the year. We have members who speak at schools, community centers, and professional meetings.

The Plymouth County Beekeepers Association has been granted 501(c)(3) status. We are a nonprofit educational organization dedicated to the support of local apiculture and agriculture.  Our primary goals are to further the art and science of beekeeping, the mutual support and education of our members, to inform and educate the public about beekeeping through our participation in local fairs and festivals, our "Beekeeping School for Beginners," and presentations given by our members to local and regional schools, community groups, and organizations. 

Several members put in a lot of time and energy to make this happen so that we are a state and federally recognized organization, capable of applying for public and private grants, accepting charitable donations to the PCBA are tax deductible, and we have a formal structure where the needs of the organization are put before the individual.
