Hi all. I suppose I should write a simple hello!
I've been considering bee keeping for years. I have finally decided to really jump in and have been having a great time building my hives. I personally have _never_ seen a swarm in person. So, rather then take my chances tryign to find one I purchased package bees. We should be getting this 2nd week of April. Most people think I am crazy. But, we have a garden and alot of Dwarf Fruit tree's along with Cane Berries. so, I originally started with the ida of just having bee's to polinate. As I read more I got more and more intrigued about the whole process and collecting honey.
I am using the hTBH as described in the Barefoot Beekeepers Book.
welcome glad to see you take the plunge. I am starting out this year also with my first package due in 22 days
welcome.
