I am a hobbiest beekeeper with 23 hives in northern Illinois, planning to move near Missoula, Montana in the next year. I am looking at the Thompson Falls-Noxon area and wondered if anyone has any insight on this area for beekeeping.

Also, I'm looking for advise on whether I should take my bees with me or sell them and start over in Montana. I would like to keep my current stock, as they are pretty hearty and good producers. But I'm not sure of the consequences of relocating them. Any feedback/insight will be helpful.
:scratch:
Thanks, Richard

I think if it were me I would move them bees are transported all the time. I would also find a local Beekeeping Asso. So you can get the right information you need for your bees.
