Rich in History
Rich in Knowledge

Over 100 years of beekeeping experience to help advance your beekeeping know-how.

Colorado has a rich beekeeping heritage that goes back over 145 years. Though current situations and problems for honeybees and beekeepers are perhaps more complex than in the past – they are not insurmountable. The success of many of the experienced and livelihood-dependent beekeeping operations here prove that.

A primary function of the Colorado Professional Beekeeping Association (CPBA) is to promote a sense of confidence and beekeeping success that historical and heritage beekeepers in Colorado have contributed and will continue to contribute to Colorado beekeepers and beekeeping.
