Hi Randy,

I'm located in SW PA, not in eastern PA, AKA 'honey belt' of PA.  There are no commercial beekeepers visiting or residing here.  Maybe a 5 acre apple orchard or two, perhaps a few 5 acre plots of pumpkins whiten 10 miles of me, are all tended by local beekeepers. Within a 5 square mile of my home, I couldn't imagine more than 20 domestic bee hives existing.

Best Wishes,
Joe
