Title: need bees in Central Florida
Post by: crowhammer on January 30, 2010, 10:20:18 AM
Does anyone know where I can get a nuc or two? I'm in floral city, which is between Brooksville and Inverness. I lost my bees to the cold snap and intense robbing. Would like to replace them soon.

Oh yah I just bought some honey from a feed store in Homosassa and it's from Floral city "Bee sweet apiaries" Scott W. Mills Floral city 34436. I don't have a number and have know idea if they sell bees but it may be worth a search.

I have some bees in Chiefland that I will be making nucs in a few weeks off of.  If you are interested PM me and we can work on the details and prices as I don't think this is the place for that.
