Post by: Irina on June 22, 2011, 03:36:11 PM
I am looking for a Mentor in NH or MA area. I would like someone come to my beeyard and check on my hives to see if I do things correctly.
I promiss to be a good apprentice! I will cook a nice dinner anytime he or she comes to my house :) :) :) :)
If you know someone... and he or she is not on the forum, please pass the info.

Thank you!

Have you tried contacting nearby clubs?

Thank you,
I attended the beekeeping school at one of the NH beekeepers associations. I am glad that I did.
But, most of the people from the club are commercial beekeepers and don't have time. I called them few times with questions, but I felt like I bothered them.
Another club just open close to my location. I will also try to contact them.

Note that massbee is having a field day Saturday, 25 June, I think just west of the Quabbin reservoir.  See their meeting announcements.
