The Bee Man....The Honey Man

My grandfather, Novak Bullard, was recognized as the 1991 Beekeeper of the Year by the Oklahoma State Beekeepers Association (OSBA). He was well known in our community as “The Bee Man” and “The Honey Man”.  Locals called on him when they needed help with swarms or bee removal. He provided these services to our city offices,  public schools, and the surrounding communities at no charge.

Here are a few pictures of him and my grandmother, Jean, working the bees.
