Looking to apprentice

Hi all!

I have been searching and posting high and low for the opportunity to apprentice under an experienced and thoughtful beekeeper. I am finishing up my 3rd year of beekeeping here in CT and we are headed into winter. I'd love to in continue learning and working hands on with all things honeybees. I'd love to apprentice at an apiary whose season will still be running during my in long winter but if that doesn't work out I would also love to work with someone who is building there own hives and other apiary supplies. I interned at a Biodynamic honeybee sanctuary and have an interest in off the beat and path folks such as Kirk Webster. I am happy and willing to leave the states. I'd love for anyone who is interested or who might know someone who is interested in setting up a work-trade exchange to reach out! Or perhaps you have a resource that you think might be worth checking out. Any and all input is more then welcome. Thank you all!

Have you thought of joining a bee keeping club, society.
They are very common here in Australia and a great source of support, information and encouragement.

Try frequenting farmers markets to find a commercial beekeeper. They are always looking for help and they will typically have more information than you could ever learn from videos or books. Join a bee club also a good resource and most of the time folks there will willingly take help during spring splits and summer/fall honey flows. I hope you pursue the beekeeping experience it's addictive once you get the hang of it.

I can't help you with in person experiences, but are you a member of the treatment free beekeepers group on facebook? It might suit you, and has a lot of like minded bee-centric beekeepers.
