The Pennsylvania Backyard Beekeepers Association (PBBA) was formed
by a small group of beekeepers who realized the need for an association
with the desire to be active, creative, supportive, social, inventive, and
dynamic in the changing world of beekeeping. One that supports a
wide range of beekeeping styles, ideologies, and experiences. And one
that could mold itself into an effective association moving forward
with unlimited capabilities. Two key components of this concept was
registering as a nonprofit, and starting an association from scratch
with no barriers or limitations. With that concept, Pennsylvania
Apiculture Inc., (PennApic) was formed. We are proud and excited
to present a state -wide nonprofit association able to help the
bee industry in a broad range of support programs while also
catering to the needs of backyard beekeepers, which make
up the membership of the PBBA. We ask for your support and
chance to show you what we are about.
The Pennsylvania Backyard Beekeepers Association (PBBA) is a state -wide bee association administered
under the nonprofit corporation status of Pennsylvania Apiculture Inc., a 501 ( c) filed in the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. PennApic is also the administrator for the National Honey Bee Day program.
Please check out some of our programs and activities listed on the website. We are open to suggestions,
comments, and advice. The association membership is made up of beekeepers and nature loving individuals
just like you. And we look forward to your support. Thank you.
