A Bee Hive As A Service Animal On A Plane?

We are David and Sheri Burns from Long Lane Honey Bee
Farms and honeybeesonline.com. Happy Holidays!

We all love our bees, but listing them as a service animal? Becoming frustrated by how easy it is to register an animal as a service animal, an Arizona man tried registering his bee hive as a service animal and it worked! It was approved. Of course, he would never be allowed to bring bees on a plane but he proved his point that many people go through the motions when their dogs aren't really trained as service dogs. We better leave our hives at home the next time we travel.

I'll Be Speaking in Missouri, Utah and Iowa. 
 
My 2020 speaking schedule is filling up fast. I will be speaking along with my good friend and fellow EAS Certified Master 
Beekeeper, Jon Zawislak in St. Louis January 18th. The Three Rivers Beekeepers will be holding an Intermediate Beekeeping Conference Saturday January 18th. I'll be giving three presentations: 
Spring Management
Nutrition through the Seasons 
Queen Rearing 

Jon will be giving three presentations: Swarm Biology
Bee Genetics 
Controlling Pests and Diseases. 

I'd love to meet you at this conference in St. Louis. Registration is now open but limited. Come spend the day with us. Sign up today as this conference is limited to 120 attendees. Click Here.
 
I'm Booking My Speaking Schedule For 2020
February I'll also be speaking at conferences in Iowa and Utah. If you'd like to book me for your club or conference send me an email. Jon and I work really well together and we'd love to hold the above Intermediate presentations in your area. Jon and I became good friends while working on becoming EAS Certified Master Beekeepers back in 2009. Since then we have written articles and booklets together, worked hives together and have helped beekeepers around the country. When you book us as a team we are sure to inform and entertain your club or organization. Talk to us about hosting our Intermediate Beekeeping Conference at your club or organization.
