Welcome to Central Coast Amateur Beekeepers
Central Coast Amateur Beekeepers is an affiliate of the Amateur Beekeepers Association of NSW (ABA) based in Central Coast, NSW. The club aims to improve the knowledge and skills of amateur beekeepers. We are a small but enthusiastic group of amateur apiarists who are happy to help new beekeepers.
Our club meetings are held every month. For more details – see Events page. New members and guests are always welcome.
There is a wealth of knowledge available to all and the club has extractors and knives which can also be shared with members. We have a comprehensive library available for borrowing by members. Members are available to collect swarms as well as give presentations.
We try to have a presentation of interest at each meeting.
Publicly, we can be seen at the Central Coast Regional Show and the Wyong Orchid Show each year, where we sell club and members honey as well as all products bee related – wax , polishes, and candles.
During the Gosford Show we hold a competition for honey, wax, wax products and mead. All beekeepers as well as local schools with agricultural sections are invited to compete. There is a small prize money given. The enjoyment is more for the show of apiary diversity and time to meet and greet fellow beekeepers.
