Welcome

Welcome to the web site of the Blount County Beekeepers Association in Maryville, Tennessee.

This site will tell you a little about the association and how to become a member. It will also tell you a little about beekeeping.

Bees are an important part of our environment and particularly our agricultural system. They are also fascinating creatures.

We hope you will be interested enough to join us at some point, even if you're not interested in keeping bees. There are lots of ways you can join in with what we do.

Hi. I’m Bethany Payne. I have to complete an essay on local beekeeping and the results of honey bee pollination in my community. I live in Maryville and was wondering if someone could help me out. I can’t find much in any book here at the library. If you are willing to help me, please contact me with a number or you can contact me at home(865-856-5796) or on my cell (865-368-7522). It would be very helpful. Thank you.
