Hey all! Does anyone have recommendations for introductory courses near NYC or up into the Hudson Valley?

I'm assuming that you're not actually in NYC, so the best way is to ask a local beekeeping club near you.

This list is a good start: https://agriculture.ny.gov/system/files/documents/2026/02/beekeeper_club_directory.pdf

Some clubs may be defunct, or their websites or Facebook groups may not have the latest information, so just start contacting a bunch of them and get a live human to ask about the state of organizations in your area.

Go to a meeting to find out what classes and mentoring they offer.
