Hello Everybody,
I have reposted this letter with address's and phone numbers.
In response to Lloyd Spears email he commented that there are 2
Buckfast
breeders in Canada. There are 3 authorized buckfast breeders here in
Ontario. There is also to my understanding some in Nova Scotia. To my
knowledge they're are no other authorized producers in Canada. It is
important if you wish to purchase the Buckfast bee that you get it from
an authorized producer. This ensures that you are buying a queen or nuc
that has been developed following the selection and breeding procedures
laid out by Brother Adam and Dart Abby Enterprises. The authorized
beekeepers in Ontario who currently maintain the Buckfast strain are
Mr.
Barry Davies R.R. #1 Seeleys Bay Ontario KOH 2X0 (613-387-3171), Mr.
Paul Montoux R.R #1 Hagersville Ontario NOA 1H0 (905-768-5530) and Mr.
Rick Neilson R.R #1 Stratton , Ontario P0W 1N0 (807-487-2387). Like
Lloyd I also have Carniolan and I am also happy with them.
