Howdy from Austin Texas!
« on: February 25, 2015, 11:55:49 am »
My name is Tanya and my husband (Chuck) and I have about 40 hives in Austin, TX.  We have been keeping bees a little over 2 years and are very involved in everything bees around Central Texas!  I especially love to tend the bees in Top Bar hives, but we have both styles in our registered apiary.  Was just invited to join this forum, so it's a new venue for me. I volunteer for the Travis County Club and the Central Texas Tour de Hives, too. ;)  Always busy with bees. I am very interested in the new legislative bills under current review, too.
Thanks for the add and looking forward to connecting with other beeks in Texas.

Glad you joined us, Tanya and Chuck.  If you've managed to get up to handling 40 hives after only two years, you must be a very talented couple.  I hope you join in active participation in the forum.  You probably have a lot of good advice that you can share with us.   :yes:
