So again Im running behind. Seems at everything this year, but I wanted to give a shout out and a thank you to Michael and his whole family for the two weeks Marley and I spent there at bee camp.
Managing and working bees is managing and working bees, but the conversation in my opinion was the best factor. Mr. Bush has taken the time to research in depth many things that still allude me and us in our endeavors today. That along with the contacts/people he has access to make the conversation amazing.
It took me a lot of years to figure out what worked and didnt work, what management style I wanted, from tracheal mites through varroa. I had just given up at one point. If I had a friend/mentor like him, with his knowledge It would have been a much easier journey, and I may be on a different management style today.
I would advise anyone serious about learning about bees and that has the time, to think about going to his bee camp, or being an apprentice to him. Push forward and make it happen. The personal 1 on 1 time far out-seeds any bee-club or you-tube video.
Also im not a very interweb sort of guy, but his website
bush farms.com has a lot of outstanding info.
Marley is writing something that will be posted at a later date. And again thank you Michael and family.
