About

Our Mission

At Pacific Northwest Queen Rearing Club, we are dedicated to the art of raising local queen bees. Our monthly educational meetings are designed to engage the community by sharing valuable insights on beekeeping, classes, and success stories. Our focus on local queen bee rearing distinguishes us in the Pacific Northwest.

We believe in sustainability, community, and the importance of preserving local bee populations. Through our educational initiatives and hands-on workshops, we aim to empower beekeepers and enthusiasts to contribute to the well-being of bees and the environment.

Bee Informed Partnership Inc (BIP) is a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that strives to improve honey bee health through data-driven research in collaboration with beekeepers.

This is not a “How You Should Keep Bees” site; rather, I’m a proponent of “Whatever Works for You” beekeeping.  I’m a “data over dogma” guy, and I implore my readers to correct me on any information at this website that is out of date or not supported by evidence.

Since I’ve read widely, and made my living as a professional beekeeper,  I’m often asked to recommend resources that  I found to provide accurate information on bee biology and/or applicable, evidence-based beekeeping management practices.
