Title: Hello from newbie in VA
Post by: Dirtfishing1 on February 13, 2011, 10:25:08 AM
Glad to be here and thank you for sharing your wisdom. I look forward to keeping bees and eating home grown honey. I will be starting out with 2 Brushy Mtn 8 frame garden hives with black superframes. I have been reading lots of books and watching some videos. I would like to meet someone locally to mentor me in beekeeping so if anyone near Blue Ridge VA is willing to teach I am willing to learn. Thanks Again.

Welcome Dirt.  Hope you enjoy the hobby as well as I do.  My wife and I grew up in VA but have been away for over 30 years.  I have a sister in Front Royal though.  My wife and I have always loved VA.  We miss it, but I doubt we will ever come back to stay.  Take care.

Hi everybody. I am new from VA too. I pick up my hives today and am very happy to begin beekeeping. I know where I am putting the hives and can't wait for the bees to arrive.
