British Columbia Commercial Beekeepers Association

Sub-series primarily comprises copies of records of the annual meetings of the British Columbia Commercial Beekeepers Association. The Association was established around 1962 as an organization of individuals who draw their livelihood primarily from beekeeping or the sale of its products. Its objectives were to promote and develop markets and marketing methods for apiary products, inform members of developments in apiculture research, and participate in the Canadian Beekeepers' Council. The Association appears to have maintained a close relationship with the British Columbia Honey Producers' Association. It disbanded around 1980. Records in this sub-series consist of the Association's constitution, annual meeting minutes, newsletters, and original letterhead.
