The Maryland State Beekeepers Association has its own license plate!

Thanks to Baltimore beekeeper Bob Crouse, who spearheaded the effort, we have this beautiful license plate that pays tribute to our favorite insect, the honey bee.

The artwork, chosen by vote of the members at the MSBA 1999 Winter meeting, is the creation of Adele Morris, artist, beekeeper, and former MSBA Vice-President for Prince George's County. If you apply for the license, you get to retain it. 

To be eligible to apply for the plate, you must be a member of MSBA. 
Non-members can join MSBA for $10 for one year or $200 for life using PayPal (which accepts credit cards), and by completing this application form, which you can then email or send to the address below.
