Hello form centeral california, I have 87 hives can't wait to get into the almonds this year looking to get up to around 200 hives by next fall. I have worked for a commercial beekeeper who had 5000 hives, I pollinate and produce honey, last year i started raising queen cells plan to do it again this year, aside from keeping bees I have also planted 35 acers of oats, raise cattle in the sierra's and drive truck on occasion, I think that just about sums it up in a nut shell, I think...lol
Good to have ya here Mike. I worked for a guy that had 1400 head of black Angus and did his own hay I don't miss that haying at all.
