Any of you guys going to Leo Varela's bee club meeting on Saturday? I was supposed to go help him, but I can't because other issues came up.

I created a White House petition asking the administration to direct the EPA to do a comprehensive, well-funded third-party study of the effect of agricultural chemicals on honeybees. Please sign...only need 99,999 signatures by March 9!

Their numbers are artificially induced to be high, and the use strains with fast brood up, like Carnies. The pollinators are all about pollination and bees are secondary.

With the almond pollinating season just around the corner (like, 2-3 weeks) how do the commercial guys manage to have enough bees available? I would think there wouldnt be enough time, even in fairly warm areas like here, TX, FL, etc for the bees to build up, esp. in a cold winter (unlike we are having now!)
