Online resource outlines Michigan beekeeping regulations

Do you keep bees in Michigan? Are you thinking about beekeeping or selling honey? Michigan State University Extension has developed a new resource that outlines the rules and regulations surrounding honey bees in Michigan.

Before keeping bees in any state, it is important to know all the rules and regulations to make sure your apiary can run smoothly, and the health of your bees and your neighbors are protected. “Starting and Keeping Bees in Michigan: Rules and Regulations” outlines the rules and regulations for keeping bees in Michigan updated for 2016. This resource includes information about restrictions, honey labeling, organic requirements and more.

To access the resource, go to: Starting and Keeping Bees in Michigan: Rules and Regulations.
