Hi All,

Last week I was talking with the TN state apiarist about some apiary
locations and he told me to be careful since I was too focussed on
organic and small family farms. He related a story of a small time
beekeeper who lost all 150 of their hives when pollinating organic
strawberries after neem oil was applied. Be vigilant- pesticides
kill, natural or not, sometimes bees.
