As the state organization for Kansas' beekeepers, we provide connections in many ways:

Act as an umbrella organization for our local clubs.
Publish a quarterly newsletter that includes events and meeting information .
Provid public education and services about beekeeping with our members speaking to garden clubs, schools, and other educational groups.
Have established apiaries throughout the state, using our apiary products to demonstrate and sell to the public at the Kansas State Fair held annually in September.
The organization has donated thousands of dollars in bees, wooden-ware, and supplies to teach beekeeping through our scholarship and grant programs for nearly 15 years.
We have representatives who attend national beekeeping meetings to assure that we have current knowledge available to us in Kansas.

As a way to promote honey bees and their products, each year we sponsor a booth at the Kansas State Fair. Our booth at the fair is in the Pride of Kansas Building. The 2018 fair runs from September 7 - 16, 2018.

We rely on our membership to help man the booth, and would appreciate any time you have to offer. This is a wonderful time to interact with the general public. Meet with the public and share your beekeeping knowledge.
