Amy,

I'm sorry to hear that Andi is no longer going to be a beekeeper, but I applaud her continuing interest in bee education.

Emma Nadeau, who is in Bee School this year, has permission to set up hives at Frank Porter Graham Elementary School in Chapel Hill. Perhaps these hives could be donated to FPG where other young students can learn about bees and beekeeping.

Another OCBA member, Chris Helmstetter, is talking with McDougle Elementary in Carrboro about locating hives on that campus to help educate elementary students. The hives could also be donated to McDougle.

Both beekeepers are copied on this message in case you would like to talk with them further.

This may be early, but ... Andi has loved her experiences as a beekeeper, but she's found that she prefers educating people about bees and studying them over having her hands in her hive.  To that end, she would like to sell her hives and change her bee focus just a bit, so ......

For sale:  2 healthy honeybee hives and all related equipment.  The bees are extremely busy on warm, sunny days and appear to be thriving.  There should be honey to harvest when the time comes.  Reasonable offers considered.  Proceeds will help send Andi to Haiti to do mission work with the Hands and Feet Project.
