So, for us this extension to our own honey makes great sense.<br /><br />I'll be watching Linda's posts about her work at Stonehurst, and will write comments to help keep you up to date. There is much work to do this Spring but the hives are being built and painted, and will in place for Linda when she calls to tell us the bees are ready. It feels a little like we're waiting for the adoption agency to call and say they have a baby for us :)<br /><br />For information about Stonehurst Place and our green initiatives, please visit our website:<br />http://www.stonehurstplace.com/green.htm<br /><br />Thanks, Linda - we are so very proud to work with you!<br /><br />Barb Shadomy<br />Owner, Stonehurst Place<br />Atlanta, GABarb Shadomyhttp://www.stonehurstplace.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27329001.post-88814429554390914932011-01-26T08:29:01.130-05:002011-01-26T08:29:01.130-05:00Yeah!

I wished I lived closer so I could get a few of his packages...I will, however purchase some of his queens this year to provide some of his small cell and disease-resistant genetics to my rooftop urban bees here in DC. We are going with a natural cell-size program with foundationless frames. Let your son-in-law know that there may be more net revenue these days in breeding bees for sale then in producing honey.DCHoneybeeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03368112253592408140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27329001.post-91279964506813398772011-01-16T06:37:00.628-05:002011-01-16T06:37:00.628-05:00Good Luck with all your plansGood Luck with all your plansGeorgiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03681165124092621276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27329001.post-82515863711460064092011-01-15T17:56:35.814-05:002011-01-15T17:56:35.814-05:00Just posted on my blog a picture of the old hive I...Just posted on my blog a picture of the old hive I purchased and restored. Been many years since I've had a hive, but am dieing to get back to it. It'll be interesting, as I don't see many bees anymore in my location of Iowa. I'm surrounded by farms that still aerial spray the fields, but I'm going to make an attempt to find out what chemicals they're using, he always sprays on windy days and I've turned him in before...we'll see!!!<br /><br />A fellow blogger gave me your site, so I'm sure I'll be a frequent visitor!!! Good luck this winter, you guys sure got hit with my kinda winter!<br /><br />sharonA Wild Thinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11083369862963892366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27329001.post-32192378728838787512011-01-15T01:10:19.354-05:002011-01-15T01:10:19.354-05:00Wishing you a successfull 2011 beekeeping year Lin...Wishing you a successfull 2011 beekeeping year Linda.Bee Magic Chronicles for Kidshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06818365668819339658noreply@blogger.com
