The Guild is seeking volunteers to fill various position in 2025!
Please submit your questions or statement of interest for any of the positions below to info@phillybeekeepers.org.
Positions Available:
President
David, our fearless leader, is not running for another term because he’s busy perfecting his karaoke skills—he’s aiming to break a world record for most dramatic rendition of “Bohemian Rhapsody.” So, if you’re enthusiastic and can handle a little less musical flair and a lot more Guild leading, we want you for 2025! Please submit your statement of interest to info@phillybeekeepers.org.
Minister of Propaganda (Communications Committee)
If you’re great at writing, a social media whiz, or simply enjoy sending enthusiastic emails, this is your moment to shine! Join our communication team to help spread the word about our events, programs, and all things bee-related!
Board member
The purpose of the Board of Directors is to guide the mission of the Guild, making strategic decisions and ensuring overall good governance. The Board meets once a month. If you have ideas, passion, and a knack for collaboration, we’d love to have you….errr…. on board!
Education committee
Do you know some things about bees and are eager to share your knowledge with others? We’re looking for enthusiastic beekeepers to volunteer for our Education Committee!
Events Planning committee
Are you passionate about planning and organizing fun, engaging events? Do you want to make a positive impact in our community? If so, we want YOU on our Events Committee!
We don’t require experience for any of these positions, just motivation and dependability are things we are looking for – experience is a bonus!
We also want to share this opportunity with you from The Bee Conservancy. Scroll down for more information:
The Bee Conservancy has an opportunity that you won’t want to pass up! What is The Bee Conservancy? The Bee Conservancy is a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting bees, safeguarding the environment, and securing food justice through community-based education, research, habitat creation, and advocacy.
They have just launched the third cohort of our Master Beekeeper Program. This program will provide a scholarship to Cornell University’s prestigious Master Beekeeper Certification program beginning March 2025 as well as mentorship from our certified master beekeepers. This program is geared towards beekeepers with a minimum of three years of experience managing hives, whose work with bees helps to advance environmental stewardship, community resilience, and/or food security. Our goal is to help beekeepers get the ongoing training they need to support healthy hives and ecosystems.
