The Business of Bees: Part 11 of 111

摘要

In Part I of this series, I explained how to do a Sole Proprietorship for a bee business. It wasn't until recently, particularly speaking at the Voices of Bee Culture (in Medina, OH, home of the A.I. Root Company) that I really began to understand that almost nobody who reads my articles understands why I'm randomly installing 500 packages of bees, or moving hives to South Dakota, and then writing about having leftover equipment to build turkey and quail pens. In Medina at the Voices of Bee Culture Imet Toni Burnham in person and we hit it off pretty well. She asked me to speak for the Maryland State Beekeeper's Meeting in November and their meeting was close enough to Bobby's parents to drop off the kids (who really didn't want to go, except Charlie joined us) and made it a day trip. It was brought to my attention again that not only do people not know what I do, but they don't really know it's in a realm that actually exists.
