Hello I,m just starting out this year and hope to learn all I can before the season starts.I live in worth county Mo. and have a small farm with a few thousand Black chockberry bushes that will start to produce crop in two years and i think the bees would be a great addition to the farmsteading life. I am a selfemployed carpenter, home and farm restorer and tree trimer.(up hear you do a little of everything. looks like a great place to network
Thanks John.

Welcome John!! This site is tops for a large community
of knowledge. Centuries of combined experience at your
finger tips.

Do you have Black Knot disease in your area?? We have
it here and chokes just get hammered with it. It's a pain
to control. And can spread to plums as well.
