I got bumped off with the recent change. Here is a first post so I can remain active.
New beekeeper this year. Got a package on June 1. Planning to start 2 more this spring.
ditto Here. I'm entering my second winter beekeeping in northern virginia. I started with two nucs in the summer of 2009, then added 8 packages this past spring. I hope to do some splits or rear soemqueens this comign spring. This is my first post, but I've spent many nights lurking and reading through past posts to learn as I go. Thanks for the tremendous resource!
