Meetings of the Milwaukee Waukesha Beekeepers Association are normally held on the first Monday* of each month at 7:00pm in the large meeting room of the Brookfield Public Library – Community Room. *Note: new meeting start time*
Meetings start with announcements, a short business meeting, and then feature educational discussions or presentations, and finish with a social time to connect with other beekeepers.
Continuing in 2026 – The MWBA Beginners Beekeeping Class – This class will cover basic information and actions for that month of the year.
