Hi all,

For what it's worth, I for one would llike to buy inseminated queens out of
Mexico where they have been utilizing the proven disease and pest resistance
of the AHB for years and enjoying all the savings of getting off the chemical
treadmill. Here in California we have a new geographic race that flew in on
its own from Mexico, and yet we can't buy the selected commercial performer
and save several years of American trial and error. I would bet a couple of
beekeepers in Texas and Arizona are already making some chemical free honey.
Sustainable agriculture is a good thing.
Even I would like to eat some of that!
