Just announced that Betterbee has been sold to new owners. I wish the Best of luck to Mrs Stevens and to the new guys.
One of the new guys is an old friend, and recently retired veterinarian. He's a great beekeeper, winters nucleus colonies, and is a member of the Vermont Queen Rearing Project. Betterbee is going to promote locally raised stock, and will be running classes on producing local bees and queens. They've inquired about buying overwintered nucleus colonies and queens from my apiary. I look forward to working with Jack and the rest. The Northeast needs a company like Betterbee, and I hope they can salvage their business after years of neglect and poor customer relations.I wish the Best of luck to Mrs Stevens and to the new guys.

Do they ever offer free shipping during any part of the year? Or should I scratch them off my list? I waiting to try to give them a chance, but my patience is waning quickly. :sI look forward to this Thread turning towards the positive. May it bee so.
