Resources

North Carolina actively supports an extensive range of beekeeping and other related agriculture activities and livelihoods. Here are a few organization resources:

North Carolina State Beekeepers’ Association (NCSBA)

The NCSBA is a volunteer led organization comprised of more than four thousand active members, almost all of whom are hobbyist beekeepers and members of a network of local beekeeping associations. As one of these local associations, CCBA is chartered by the NCSBA and serves to help their members learn and enjoy the practice of keeping bees. Learn more ›

North Carolina State University Apiculture Program

The research focus of the NCSU Apiculture program is to further the understanding of honey bee biology and to better the ability of bee management. To accomplish these goals, the program is involved in various experiments that range from highly technical and theoretical to very applied and useful for the average beekeeper. Our program serves the needs of the university and general public by providing extension services and instruction built on a foundation of basic and applied research. Learn more ›
