4 Mar 2014 – The Keller Bison and Bee farm in Hancock County (Ohio) normally has about 1,800 hives at dozens of different sites around the Arcadia area but the owner thinks that more than half of them have been lost this winter.
Lyle Keller has been a beekeeper for more than three decades. He says this is setting up to be one of his toughest years, “When you start losing 50-60% of your total number it is not easy to recover from that quickly.”
