Hello Paul & All,
I like my friend Randy are careful to make predications about hives for
almonds but I think we both can safely say more than enough hives are in
California for almond pollination.
I know of around a 1000 hives in California right now needing placed.
Email me direct and I will help. Other loads could be sent if needed but
trucking would need arranged and a contract signed in advance of shipment.
The key words in the story is the word "could".
I also might add that the story can change in a hurry once hives are in an 
graded. Also next week hives from the Midwest will arrive and go directly 
into almonds. Many of these coming from record cold and snow.
