Title: New member from South Carolina
Post by: lakeman on February 05, 2009, 05:42:02 PM
Hello, I am a very dedicated gardner, and the last 2 years have experienced low pollination levals, and having always had an interest in beekeeping, want to get into it.

Hello Lakeman,

I'm pretty much of a newbee myself, but I live just across the state line in Ga.  Good luck to you.

Fortunately, I happened to find out about a beekeepinng course, being offered in a neighboring city (Greenwood SC), by the Lakelands Beekeepers Association, and the McCormick County (Clemson) Extension Service, and although they had already had their fist class, allowed me to make a late entry, and the registration included the first years membership in the Lakelands Beekeepers Association.
