Title: Just buzzing around...
Post by: ronbo on September 08, 2008, 09:34:50 PM
Howdy folk!   I'm a 3yr/3hive beekeeper, and got started when I met a great retired cabinet maker who introduced me to beekeeping.  Went to a some classes and got hooked! 

Of course, my wife limited me to just one hive to get started, so of course I had already ordered and received my one (and only!) hive, when the very following week, I ended up winning two hives from a North Carolina state sponsored program to encourage new beekeepers.   So, here I am with 3 happy hives, and loving it. 

Can't wait to share experience and learn with everyone, ronnie

Ok, so I updated my profile to reflect my hometown of Raleigh, NC.  I'm so very fortunate to be in this area, a beekeeping mecca.  There is such a strong following around of backyard beekeepers and county associations!
