Brand new to beekeeping. In fact I don?t even have bees yet. Friend invited me to help harvest honey and got me interested in pursuing it. I joined a local beekeepers club, found a couple of mentors, bought a beekeepers jacket and gloves. Also have a book. Plan is to learn as much as possible, get my equipment between now and next spring so I?m ready to set up two hives then. Looking forward to learning from folks here in the forum.
