In 2010, a non-profit, Pennsylvania Apiculture Inc. was organized to better facilitate and promote the observance. The original date of observation was August 22, 2009 (the fourth Saturday of August), but has settled permanently on the third Saturday of August.
Let’s celebrate this day and join hands for the betterment of Beekeepers, Beekeeping Industry & Honey Bees.
