Apiary Laboratory, Research laboratory at University of Massachusetts Amherst, United States.
The Apiary Laboratory stands as a three-story research facility centered on the study of native pollinator species and their population dynamics.
The laboratory emerged in 1912 as part of Massachusetts Agricultural College's initiative to establish formal beekeeping education in the United States.
The facility transformed beekeeping from a recreational pursuit into an agricultural business through research programs and educational initiatives.
The laboratory contains specialized rooms for research activities, including extraction facilities, workshops, and spaces dedicated to studying pollinator ecology.
This structure marked its place in academic history as the first building in the United States constructed specifically for beekeeping instruction.
