Hello from Central Maine
« on: August 10, 2016, 04:24:33 pm »
Well met,
I am going to start keeping bees next year. I took two classes through my local Adult Ed. program and this winter I'll be building my hives and acquiring the rest of my gear.

I am looking to start small with two hives and my main goal will be supplying myself with honey chiefly for mead making.

Welcome. I learned a lot through this forum. It's pretty active and has a lot of good folks with good experience. I started with the most current thread and begin reading backwards. I went back about a year.
