2026 Bee Mentorship - Starting March 12th - Apply Now!
If you want a hands-on program to give you the skills to really know and take care of your bees, my mentorship is for you. It's a small group program where we are always learning from each other, our experiences, and the bees! It is a one of a kind beekeeping program, in an urban backyard beekeeping setting amongst beekeepers that love their bees like a part of their family.  Click here for the full description & application!


Instructor: Jennifer Radtke has been keeping bees in her backyard for 20+ years, and has developed the beekeeping education program at the Oasis. She was ACBA Vice-President for 3 years.  She has mentees from Berkeley/Oakland to Marin to Livermore to Martinez, so she knows what's going on in all the microclimates of the Bay Area.

FYI for everyone: The original post in this thread was to the ACBA "Bee Talk" list, rather than a private list someone is running.

The club intentionally allows and encourages list posts about local beekeeping classes (by anyone offering them) since they're of fairly wide interest.

Hope that makes sense!
