Hello there. I'm a 24 year old who has just moved to Indiana from NY. I'm just starting out here, getting a job and all. I currently live with my dad but the both of us are huge animal lovers. We have decided to put in a butterfly garden next year, and that conversation led us to the topic of beekeeping. I had planned on building my own hive box once I got into a house of my own but he actually seemed confused as to why I wouldn't build one at his house. Well, to be honest, I hadn't thought of it. I had assumed that I'd have to wait until I got to my own house. So, here I am. Earlier than planned (which is fine). I'm doing the research, especially since I've just moved to a new state and all. I want to have a hive or two (and I'm sure that number will grow) in the near future, as in next spring. I'm looking for any and all information, and until then I will spend my time supporting the local beekeepers here and collecting info so that I can be the best beekeeper that I can be.
:D
