Benefits:

Your membership into HMP&B connects you with fellow beekeepers and pollinator enthusiasts alike. This connection is invaluable as we continue our journeys with bees, pollinators, and pollinator plants. We work together to maintain enthusiasm and motivation for our work with these bees and the native pollinators.

This high elevation mountain climate is exceptional and harsh - and to deal with that, we need to collaborate and share ideas to make our beekeeping exceptional as well. Being in this unique area, we need to come up with our own solutions and answers.

“First I would like to thank you folks for creating this fabulous opportunity for the rest of us to learn first hand how to keep bees. I hope someday I will be able to call myself a bee keeper. Two years without a winter success. I am willing to help support your efforts just call on me whenever. ”

“When I first started beekeeping several years ago, there was nothing here in Star Valley to help educate myself or any other hobbiest beekeeper. We were all just plodding along as best as we could. HMBP has brought us together in support and education. This organization has gone above and beyond my expectations for a beekeeping org, and my skills as a beekeeper have grown exponentially. HMBP brings in top names in the industry and provides a place where we can learn together with masters in the beekeeping and gardening fields. Highly recommend this organization!”
