I have tried to locate a beekeepers club here in north eastern (Steuben County) Indiana with no luck. Anyone know of one?

If you guys have a farm extention office in your county they can give you the information on the nearest beekeeping club.

Still give your local farm extention office a call.  There might be enough intrest in your area to get one started.  I know they are trying to start one in my county through our local extention office.  Not to mention they probably have information that you can use or even programs to help you out with some of the cost.

I will do that Hankdog. I would love to have one here. I have belonged to two others (one in Lapaz, Indiana and one in Oklahoma) in days gone by, but that was many miles away.
