Hi from central NY
« on: January 28, 2013, 01:26:44 am »
Hi!
My name is Bill Alexander. I have Goat Man Bee Farm in Stanley NY.
I'm going on my 3rd year keeping bees. If I'd known I would love it I would have been doing it years ago!!!!!!!

I've spent alot of time reading posts here and have learned a tremendous amount. Thanks to all of you.

Bill

Welcome!

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Goatmanbees, has a nice ring to it. What kind of goats do you keep and do you milk them? Love me some goat milk!

I guess the name is a bit misleading. I don't have goats.
The name is in reference to Pan.  The protector of shepherds, fields and all things wild(including bees).
I got the concept from the book The Shamonic Way of the Bee by Simon Buxton.  It really sparked my interest in keeping bees.

As a nod to the past and our continued relationship with bees I have Goat Man Bee Farm.
