Needing to replace storm ravaged hives in Southwest Missouri

[BransonBeeFarm]

The bad weather in Southwest Missouri took a bad toll on my hives and I need to replace 6 of them. If you know anyone with hives, nucs or packages for sale locally or willing to ship to Southwest Missouri or Northwest Arkansas please let me know either PM me or post here as I am checking everyday.

Thanks in advance.

rtoney,
Thanks for the message. Yes, I have checked craigslist. I need actual bees not the woodenware or supplies.

I saw bees for sale somewhere, it may have been Fair Grove If I can remember or find where it was I will let you know.
I am just North of Branson where are you located?

David,
Where I had seen the bees for sale was on the forum but it was someone in Springfield wanting to sell for their dad in California, however there is a guy up by Springfield that wants to sell the two hives of bees that he has.
If you e-mail me I will give you his contact information and maybe you can work something out.

I don't currently belong to any beekeping associations but I speak frequently with a beekeeper who teaches at College of the Ozarks.
