The Sagadahoc County Beekeepers Association  welcomes residents of Sagadahoc and adjacent counties who are currently keeping bees, or just thinking about it. Meetings are both social and educational, for all beekeeping experience levels. We also offer mentor matching for novices.

Meetings are held at the Topsham Grange Hall, 47 Pleasant St off US Rt 201 in Topsham, on the 2nd Wednesday of every month. Doors open at 6:00 pm for socializing and refreshments. The business meeting starts at 6:30, followed by a guest speaker, round-table discussion or workshop at 7:00 pm. Open hive events are held in June, July, and August. 

SCBA holds “Bee Breakfasts” on the 4th Saturday of each month, from 8-9 am at Fairground Cafe in the Topsham Fair Mall. Come for breakfast (or just coffee) and talk about our favorite subject: honey bees! We welcome all beekeepers.
