Hi, My name is Mark Berninghausen. I'm from Brasher Falls, NY which is in The North Country. The extremely northern part of NY where we chuckle when we hear Westchester County called Upstate. :)

I run about 500 colonies of bees, sell honey, do pollination in two States, Summer bees in NY, and Winter bees in SC. Once the bees are safely South for the Winter I come home. I have had been since 1976 and started being commercial 1988, or there abouts.

I'm looking forward to chatting w/ others already in Beemaster.com.

Good to see you here, Mark. What took you so long?
About time to bring them south again, isn't it?

Hi iddee. Been busy other places and found my previous account elapsed. I'm having a time getting used to how things work here.

May not be going South for about a month.

Hope you have been well.

Thought I had when I registered. What happened to that information, I wonder.

Welcome Mark. How far south do you take your bees? If you are in the Jacksonville area, let me know.

Thanks, if I do I will let you know. I grew up just north of Philly. All of my family are in the Philly area.

Just north of Philly? Do you mean Antwerp? Do you know Buster Smith and Charlie Alton? Bob Dake maybe? The late Billy Engelhardt?
