Jerry stated "January of 2023 will mark my 50th year working with honey bees".  

The experience you bring to the table is priceless....however, I have you beat. I began working honey bees in Minnesota as a teenager in 1955. I am now 80 so that gives me 67 years. On the other hand, there were college years and 28 years in the Army so I quickly fell behind Jerry. I began training veterans and transitioning military members in beekeeping and honey production 11 years ago. Jerry's knowledge and wisdom are imparted to every one of our students in that we require them to take his courses as we do the hands-on part. Keep yourself healthy Jerry. You have so much to share.
