Red River Apiarists' Association: Spring Report

摘要

It's gray skies and cloudy, chilly weather as I write this piece. Rob and I got home from Cuba around March 21st and, after having completed the two weeks of self-isolation, have begun to move about, all be it carefully. As we waited for news of whatCOVID-19 might do to our flight home from Cuba, my thoughts were with the beekeepers back home waiting for their workers from Nicaragua and the Philippines and with those workers as well. The dependence on those jobs goes both ways. I wondered how the pandemic would affect flights coming from various directions with packaged bees and queens.
