Awesome. There is an organic farm not far from us that have just planted quinoa, lentils and chikpeas for the first time this year. Not sure if any of it produces nectar, will do some research.

Nope don't have enough colonys even now having 60 at home.
Alot of small beefarmers applyed this year.
I don't think I will try again I can get really good prices on equipment and jars, and I have two farms near me that want me to take hives for pollination just from word of mouth. Plus my insurance is through work.

When I applied I didnt have that many I got told to re-apply when I had 60+ as there was quite a few applications from beekeepers in my position.
