Can anyone direct me to a beekeepr on Long Island NY who can sell packaged bees or nucs this spring? I'm thinking local is better for a slew of reasons. Any guidance is appeciated
Hello,
I found my local source from a local area beekeepers association website.
They had a list of names & numbers. The person was a pro-beek, but they take a trailer to Georgia in the spring and bring them back to fill there orders.
Good Luck,
Paul
The local group is the LI Beekeepers Club. They are a wealth of great info & a fun group; consider joining. One of their members usually makes an annual trek to pick up southern packages, and some others sell locally grown nucs through their website classifieds.
