Hi there,
I'm the new kid on the block. I personally don't keep any bee's yet.
Hope to learn enough to start with a hive or two.
Back in NY, a friend had approx. 150 hives, I got some experience by assisting him especially in April and May, pollunating fruit orchards.
Glad to be here, and look forward to learning. shu9265.
I dont' have any bees yet either, but I highly recommend "Beekeeping for Dummies" as a book. It has clear explanations on how to assemble and inspect complete with pictures. Also, read beemaster's Online Beekeping Course. There is good info in that!

Welcom Shu,
I agree with Amy's post on Dummies. There are also many other books recommended by the members of the forum in a thread titled, oddly enough, Recommended Books in the general forum. Good luck and I hope you like it here! :D
