A record number of people are out of work in Westfield County due to the recession. And that means a record number of Westfield County residents are looking for a job, sometimes in a field utterly different from the one they have been trained for. This is exactly what Angelina Caruthers, founder and director of Westfield Bee Services, is counting on.
"If you’re out of work and looking for a way to start with a clean slate, beekeeping is likely the perfect answer," Caruthers says. "The market for domestic honeybee pollination services among Westfield farmers is healthy, and it’s nowhere near to being adequately filled. That’s a recipe for business success."
To capitalize on this scenario, Caruthers’s company has announced a series of beekeeping workshops, to be held every Wednesday and Saturday at the office of Westfield Bee Services in Becksburg. After attending just three sessions and successfully completing a certification exam, anyone who chooses to can become a licensed beekeeper, purchase a colony, and launch their very own bee service startup. The cost of the three-class course is $220, paid up front and in full, and registration forms are available from the Westfield Bee Services website.
"It’s really a win-win situation," Caruthers continues. " The unemployed get an opportunity to create and run their own business, county farmers get access to more pollination providers, and the general public gets an increase in the amount of fruits and vegetables grown in Westfield."
According to the article, what is NOT a benefit of the beekeeping course?
选项
A、A boost to the Westfield economy
B、A larger stock of produce for consumers
C、Entrepreneurial potential for job hunters
D、More services available to local growers
答案
