Door County Beekeepers Club Mentoring Program

The unique thing about beekeeping is that there are no firm rules, and every hive contains new experiences and adventures. Continuing education is always beneficial, and there are no better resources than fellow beekeepers and club members.

The Door County Beekeepers Club is dedicated to helping new beekeepers, seasoned beekeepers, and everyone in between. Many members have asked about establishing a mentoring program to provide answers and connect fellow beekeepers with both resources and solutions. Several members have volunteered to serve as mentors and they are listed below. The location of each beekeeper mentor is also listed to guide members in selecting someone near their apiary. As more volunteers step forward, the list will be updated.
