    Now that was a special treat!
    A human interest story… and getting to meet the very special people of our good neighbors to the south of Canada!
    Thank you so much Terry & Bob… for taking time out to sit down & chat about your lives and the experiences you’ve lived!
    Life is so much more than just beekeeping!

As you said, character and integrity goes a long way. Many people today have forgotten that. Thanks for sharing.

    Terry...can't thank you enough for your commitment for keeping our flag flying free. My dad was a Vietnam Vet in 67-69 with the Airforce...driving a Dozer setting up runways and uncharged of the big generators. Dad never talked much...and we could tell we didn't want to ask much. Thank you from my family...including our 80k beegirls in the colonies. Dad loves cut comb, and he gets as much as he wants!

    Please tell Terry thanks for me. I am 10 years behind you guys in age and I remember signing up for the draft to go. The war ended and I was spared being drafted but you never know. On a more positive side I am sure the beekeeping was therapeutic for Terry. Great story. We should never forget to thank all vets no mater the era. Their service is and was a sacrifice. Their stories are never too small to be told and heard.

    Another great video!!! I enjoyed hearing the old working stories!!!! I have a question, it may make a good video for you but, if your schedule was completely empty and you could get apairies to setup on, where would you go, and what would that season look like? Like mountains for the sourwood or Florida for orange blossoms. Do you know anyone that chases a particular blooms nationwide for the various honey crops???Asking for someone crazy enough to do it out of a wall tent!!! 😁 thank you Terry for your service to our country sir!

    • @bobbinnie9872
      @bobbinnie9872  Год назад

      There are probably as many honey crops to chase as imagination will allow. Sourwood and orange is certainty a couple of them. Tupelo in the Florida panhandle, gallberry near the Okefenokee swamp are others in the southeast.

    I really enjoyed your conversation with Terry. I sell around 25 nucs a year and just had an incident that I had not experienced before after several years of selling nucs. A customer called to say that three weeks after picking up and installing his nuc, they all died. To my knowledge all of my other customers and my own personal nucs have thrived. Many of my customers have taken time to call and tell me how well their nucs are doing and how happy they are with them. I am going to give this customer, with the dead bees, another nuc free of charge, but am curious as to how long the seller is responsible, if at all, for the viability of the bees? The customer stated that they were fine when he installed them. I want everyone to be happy with their purchase, but question whether I should have been this accommodating!! I am the Ohio beekeeper that also has a home in Blairsville and can't wait to get back down to the mountains of GA!

    • @bobbinnie9872
      @bobbinnie9872  Год назад +1

      Hi Larry. I go through plenty of this every year and I have to admit that some people can really try your patience. Although many bee suppliers have a policy of "Buyers assume all responsibility when bees leave this property" I try to take it case by case. This year we had complaints like "we had 30 out of 40 queens go bad in three weeks, I've been doing this 16 years, never had this happen, has to be your queens" - even though we have had nearly 100% success with the same queens. Or "five out of the seven nucs you sold me had bad queens", - even though we checked them two days before they left. Or "half the the queens you sold me superseded within three weeks". "One third of the packages you sold me were bad and failed", even though they looked great when they left here, etc, etc.
      If you're going to sell bees this type of thing will happen and in most cases it will be the customers fault. But, like you, I want all of our customers to have a positive experience and in many cases I simply make it happen at my expense. If the customer is sincere I try to be respectful and listen carefully to see if there is a possibility of a mishap on our end and in many cases we try to make it right even though it seems probable that something went wrong after the bees left our care. HOWEVER, if I'm quite sure that someone is trying to take advantage of me or they are simply being stubborn and unreasonable (this happens) I do nothing.
