Joining the IEBA is as easy as showing up at the next meeting (2nd Friday of every month). In-person meetings have returned but check back frequently to see if that is still an option. These will also be broadcast on Zoom, regardless.  We typically gather downstairs in the WSU Extension building at 222 N. Havana St., Spokane, WA. 

Informal meet and greet and "bee talk" starts at 6 p.m. - the formal meeting starts at 6:30 p.m., followed by the monthly educational program. Refreshments are served and treats to share are appreciated as well.

We welcome all beekeepers and look forward to your company and participation! Don't be shy about asking questions; the most helpful beekeeping education comes directly from your local beekeepers. If you want to learn more about your bees and to learn what others are doing in the area, attending our meetings is your opportunity.

Annual membership dues are $15.00 per person. We begin accepting dues payments January 1st, each year. A note to current members: be sure to pay by the end of March, to avoid being dropped from the rolls!

Beginning in 2023 we encourage members to pay dues on the website using a credit card. In this manner, you will automatically become a member of the website and have access to the Members Area. Each person will register using their own, unique email address. That is how the website keeps track of who is who.

Alternatively, you can print out and fill in the membership form provided below. (If you don't have a printer, blank forms will be available at the meeting.) Dues can be paid at the meeting (cash or check please) OR you can mail the completed form with a check to the address provided on the form. After your payment is received and processed, we will email you an invitation to become a Member on the website as well, so you will have access to the Members Area.          

A note to our new Apprentice class: The first year of membership is included with your class fee! We will also add you as a Member on the website for your first year, so you will be able to see the information available in the Members Area.
