Hi,

Greetings!  Completely new to the bee world.  No hives yet; I'm signed-up for a local "bee school" this winter and am planning on two hives in the spring.  I've already learned quite a bit from this forum; congrats on maintaining a friendly tone.  Hopefully in time I'll have some experiences to contribute.

Thanks,
Kevin

I have not.  Ordering soon though.  Construction will be during snow.

Welcome to Beemaster.
How are you going to get bees? If you are going to buy a Nuc or a package, you need to do that now. If you do, first ask what they treat their bees with. If they use antibiotics, walk away. If you do not want to use any chemicals, find a seller that does not treat. You will need to use what ever the seller uses to keep you bees alive the first few years.
Your best bet is to set swarm traps and catch a feral hives.
Good luck.
Jim
