Bee Informed!

The HDOA Apiary Program has established the Hawai`i Beekeeper Registry

Act 200 was passed by the State Legislature and enacted by Gov. Neil Abercrombie during the 2011 legislative session.  The law establishes a voluntary registry of beekeepers in the state, which will be used to provide information and services to Hawai`i beekeepers.
