I will save the date for 2020. I am a home school grandma and very interested in bee keeping, not only for myself, but for my two older grandchildren whom I home school. If you know of any future bee educational events prior to 2020, please let me know.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Marilyn Jarmon

Are there local bee keepers looking to place there hives on other people’s property? I’m from North Carolina and am starting a vegetable garden and need all that help and advice I can get.
