welcome to beekeeping!  you'll find it addicting.

you'll want to put your location in your profile.  it will help when you have questions that require local answers.

Hello, and welcome to your new addiction!

You'll find this forum to be a good resource for learning more about bees & beekeeping. Be sure to check out the tutorials on the main Beemaster page.

I also recommend getting involved in a local club. Clubs are great places to find mentors and get connected with nearby beekeepers.

Don't know. Try the email or call the phone number listed for them on the State site.

Hi, I'm in East Peoria.  The HIBA website isn't very good IMHO but we are an active club.
