PACKAGE BEES FROM SAPONY CREEK, 3/22 PICKUP:

Have you ordered a package(s) or queen(s) [or plan to] from Sapony Creek/Dave Bradley in Rocky Mount, NC, for March 22 pickup?

OBX Beekeeper Dorothy Morris will be picking up her packages that day and has offered to pick up for others!

If you would like her to pick up your order, here are your instructions:

  1. Call Sapony Creek (252)-904-1446, and let them know you will be on the 3/22 OBX order to be picked up by Dorothy Morris.
  2. Call Dorothy Morris at (252)-599-2507 to give her your name & number and let her know what you have ordered so that she can add you to her list.

On pickup day, when she is driving on her way back from Rocky Mount, she will let Denise know her ETA, and Denise will broadcast text the ETA to everyone on the pickup list.  

Dorothy will bring the orders to her home located at 608 W. Kitty Hawk Road Kitty Hawk, NC 27949 for everyone to pick up there. When you come to pick them up, any donations toward her gas expenses are welcome!

The Sapony Creek package pickup is currently scheduled for March 22, 2022.  As usual, the pickup date will be dependent on Sapony Creek.  In years past there have been weather delays that extended the pickup date, so plan accordingly!

REVIEW/ PRACTICE Package or Nuc installation NOW before your expected orders arrive…. figuring it out the day of costs you time & sometimes bees!


Thanks,
