Hey guys, 2013 will be my first year keeping bees and I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good source for package bees in my area. I'm located in the south central Missouri Ozarks. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Joe

Contact the Ozarks Beekeepers association in Springfield. There are some members that can probably help you. Do it soon, though. Www.ozarksbeekeepers.com

I know of a guy that sells nucs in Poplar Bluff, Dexter, and Farmington if you want to go that far. Surely you can find someone closer. Check with a local bee club.

I ordered a package from ourgreenthumbfarm (just do a search) located in Stockton MO this year. They have a pick-up day in Springfield late March. I haven't ordered from them before so I don't know yet how they will be, but they might be close enough for you to make the drive. They sell nucs and hives too, according to their website. He said my package will come with a Minn. Hyg. queen.
