----------
Many communities in Utah (the Beehive State) have restrictions on beekeeping. Some of these restrictions are quite harsh or redundant. Find a compilation of those restrictions the website of the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food.
In the 2024 session of the Utah Legislature, HB.297 was adopted to limit the ability of a local governmental entity (eg, municipality, county) to regulate beekeeping on private property.
The bill requires the Department of Agriculture and Food (UDAF) to convene a working group to develop recommendations to the Commissioner of UDAF to establish standards that governmental entities must follow when restricting beekeeping. In order to ensure the voices of Utah beekeepers is heard, please participate in this survey. One submission per beekeeper only, please.
