Thanks Steve, I look forward to your guidance in hiving. Should I call you when I hear from Plan Bee? Thank you Santa Fe Bee Keepers for the many responses. It will be educational to meet all of you at the next meeting. John On Thu, Apr 4, 2024 at 5:33 PM STEPHEN BLACK <steve1957@icloud.com> wrote:

 I took a nap and the whole human hive of Santa Fe emailed about my plea for help "Hiving." Thanks greatly. There was also one phone call from Marilyn at 720 560 8906 if I heard correctly. My ears quit working a few years ago.

This will be my first year with my own hive although when I worked on a farm in Embudo there was a hive provided by a couple in Truchas. In other words, no experience.

This is a small thing I can do to help the environment.

Plan Bee has not given me a date other than late April, so I guess most of the packages will arrive near the same time.

I live at 1859 Camino Lumbre here in Santa Fe. This is between Zia and Rodeo on the other side of the tracks.

Whomever is close and has the time, please advise.

All your responses are appreciated.

John Harvey

John Harvey here. I attended the Zoom Meeting last week but for some reason my electrons on this end would not cooperate -- selfish little things.

I have a new hive and equipment, however after seeing and hearing the meeting I realize that reading books and seeing videos will not qualify me to install the queen and attendants when they arrive from Plan Bee at the end of the month.

Is there anyone with the time and expertise to lend a hand to get me started?

Best regards, John Harvey
