Hackenberg's in Milton (2 hours north of Gettysburg) and Drapers near the NY border (not on the way either) but I thought I'd throw it out there.  I am not sure if Hackenberg will be open yet.  Probably pollenating crops down south right now.  There's also Aucker's in Millville (about 2 hours from Gettysberg).  They are probably around.  Drapers does tours if you give them a call.  I'm sure if you ask you can get a tour of Auckers or Drapers too.

Thank You Bassman. I will be leaving Saterday. Maybe I will get to see some northern beekeeping operations. Thanks for the tip.

Have fun.  Lots of history down there, as you can imagine.
