Hi All
Greetings from Eastern Ontario Canada.
I have been reading with interest comments of beekeeping from other
areas and thought perhaps beekeepers would be interested in colony
and weather conditions from here.
From the comments I hear wintering is generally good, however the
weather this spring is terrible staying extremely cool with above average
precipitation and we are at least 3 weeks behind in springs work. We
are presently boxing Nucs which we overwinter and sell in the spring
and hope to do the first graft for queens this week.
A number of inquiries leads me to clarify some claims concerning the
Buckfast Queens.
Buckfast is a registered trademark of Dart Abbey Enterprises and in
Canada we have 5 Authorized Users and queens from them are the
only ones that are Buckfast, bred and selected as Brother Adam
intended.
Names and Addresses of the 5 Authorized Users are as follows;
