Welcome to Macleay Valley Amateur Beekeepers Association Incorporated
We are an enthusiastic and young club, established in 2022. Our club is open to anyone to join who is interested in Amateur Beekeeping.
The club’s aim is to support new and experienced beekeepers by sharing information, skills and knowledge and providing hands-on experience in our apiary, where we have many different styles of hive to suit all levels of experience and physical ability and mobility.
Club meetings are held at 11 am, the 3rd Sunday of the month, except December.

Inclusive Community for All Beekeepers
