Just introducing myself I am planning on getting started with Beekeeeping this spring. My primary reason is to get some bees to work my fruit trees and gardens as the past few years I have not seen many honey bees in my area and the crops harvests have been very poor. Hoping to start two hives this spring. I plan on going to a bee keeping introduction class next month and in the mean time I will be researching on line and looking for a local experienced keeper to help me along the way. I have really enjoyed reading some of the content on the boards here and look forward to learning more.
Welcome to the forum, lots of good folks and information here, enjoy your stay.
Have you ordered bees yet? Not sure about your area but I'm thinking if you want to start this spring you need to see about getting an order in sooner rather than later.
Good luck! :)

I am following up on a couple leads on some local nucs hoping they pan out as I would prefer to start with bees that are used to our lovely winters that we have hear in WNY. I definately need to find some soon as from what I hear they go pretty quickly.
Thanks for all the welcomes!!
Hopefully someone will chime in with some leads for you. And welcome to the forum.
