Greetings from WV (well... not yet!...)

[joa1]

Greetings everyone!
I just joined. Will be (for the time being!) mostly lurking and reading and learning.
Will be moving with the family to WV soon (hopefully) and looking forward to
100% natural, no chems, no treatment beekeeping (a la Dee Lusby and so many
others...)
If anyone is beekeeping in WV or close by (we will be close to Elkins, Randolph County)
or knows where to get bees that were never treated, meet and chat with other natural,
chem free beekeep/lov/ers, etc., I would appreciate to know about it.
And I hereby pledge to abide by the forum rules!!!
God bless!
