Title: Russian breeders in northern california?
Post by: bberry on February 01, 2009, 07:50:20 PM
I need to find a breeder of Russian bees in northern California to order this spring. My Italians are not withstanding the increasing frigid temps very well and this seems to be all my local beeks are carrying. thanks all!

I don't know if this guy is on here but he's on beesource.  Go to the members page and type in "BEES4U"  His profile says Ventura, CA

If you can not find russians in the north, contact OHB (Olivarez Honey Bees) 877-865-0298 and get some NWC. Chico is in NORTHERN California. I have dealt with OHB for a number of years and they have good bees.
