East, west, north and south  -  which is best? All four directions are best for our Texas Honey Queen, Allison Adams! She has traveled in all four directions on behalf of us Texas beekeepers and our bee-loved honey bee. Allison, you are doing a superb job of being Honey Queen from the Lone Star State!
     Thank you to all of you beekeepers who invited Allison to your area. Thank you to all who so warmly hosted her.  Thank you to all Texas beekeepers for your support of the Texas Honey Queen Program! Thank you, Rachael Seida, for co-chairing this excellent program with me. Thank you, Jimmie Oakley, for managing all funds very well. 

     One benefit of the Honey Queen Program is the continual increase of people interested in keeping bees and using honey. At our home, we see the increase in the number of callers who genuinely care about the honey bees and the products of the hive.
     The upcoming months will be busy ones for the Texas Honey Queen at events where you can join her. She will be cooking with honey in the company of the American Honey Queen or Princess at the Texas State Fair on October 6 and 10 (local honey queens will give demonstrations on October 7 and 9). The Texas Beekeepers Association Convention will take place November 11 - 14, at the Inn of the Hills in Kerrville, TX. Come volunteer with Allison for Kids Learning about Bees on Thursday, November 11, at the Convention. And lastly, join Allison at the North American Beekeeping Conference and Tradeshow in lovely Galveston, TX, on January 4 - 8, 2011. You won’t be disappointed at any of these events. Please call or email me as you would like for
Allison to visit your
area. I look forward to
seeing you!
Thank you again!
