hi folks,
if you're anywhere near north carolina, there is a gentleman here by the name of
Fred Deer who would be worth his weight in gold ( pun intended if he reads this )
at any meeting. He is a Master Beekeeper and a character of a person as well. To sit
through one of his classes is a joy, his mixed in stories and jokes will teach you and
put you into fits of laughter.
He can be contacted through the NC beekeepers assoc. and i assume that he is listed in
the directory for Raleigh NC.
