Hi Gary. We recently had an “intermediate” beekeeping class and have just started planning out spring class for next year. It will (tentatively) be on March 2nd, 2024. If you’re interested, I will add you to the mailing list to be notified when the class becomes open for registration.
Also, feel free to come to any of the Central Valley Beekeepers Association monthly meetings. They are generally held on the third Thursday of each month and are open to all. Our next meeting is scheduled for October 19th. Check the information here.
