how far you want to drive? how many you want?
might be able to ship a 4 frame nuc or 2 there if it was  a little light on honey to keep weight down.

PM me

Yes, At the last meeting on Tues.  Thanks for the suggestion though.

I figured that you had but thought I would ask anyway.  I have dealt with James and Nina in the past and attended the meetings before but the distance and my work schedule make it difficult.  Last year I bought three hives from a guy at Batesville, I can't think of his name but I will try to find it.  What FD are you with?
BATES
