Oklahoma State
Beekeepers Association
Welcome to the official
website of the Oklahoma State Beekeepers' Association (OSBA). We were established in 1939 and were incorporated on September 7, 1976. The
membership form in pdf format can be found here.
Another Great Meeting! Thank you Northwest and Frontier Country Beekeeper Associations you did a fantastic job. All the speakers were very informative. The potluck meal was very good, the door prizes and auction items were great! Thank you for all of your hard work! Congratulations Northeast Beekeepers Association (NEOBA) for winning the "Wandering Bee Award"! NEOBA had the largest number of local members attending the state meeting and have bragging rights until next spring.
Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD) is one of the bigest challenges to beekeepers today. Click here to read about the symptons and fill out a survey (whether you have had problems with CCD or not). Help the research being conducted to find out what CCD is and how to battle it. Your help is needed!
There are many new articles on the web about CCD. Here are some very interesting ones: CCD and more and more.

The OSBA also encourages all state beekeepers to
locate, join, and attend monthly meetings of their local association.
Your attendance, along with a friend, will serve to increase your
enjoyment of beekeeping and to support your local association.
The OSBA wishes to thank all of our
members for their continued participation, support and
membership. We hope that you will reap a good honey crop this
year and for many years to come.
Members should contact the
association president if they or someone they know would like to speak
or present a program at our next association meeting.
