pollinators: grim dead bees by kelly heaton

My bee yard is grim.  Last Fall, one hive died from the cold and the another just left.  I was really sad to lose them … I loved my bees, which may be hard to understand unless you keep them yourself.  I will start again this Spring with local nucs instead of Georgia packages (2014).
