I have been considering keeping a couple of hives for a while now. I was wondering if I could hear from any of you who keep bees and how you got started. I gather it is too late to start this year, as the apiaries I have researched seem to be sold out, but that gives me lots of time to get the stuff I need and figure out what the heck I am doing. I think it would be a great thing to add to my list of chores...
