Hi there guys

I used to keep bees in Virgina but when I moved out here I had decided to forego the plaesure. But have recently decided to get back into it here in Northern Arizona near Kingma. I would like any help or suggestions about doing it here. What is the difference here than in Va.? Actually I would like any comments about doing in here in Arizona.


Thanks for any help

Mike

I'm keeping bees in Arizona, but I haven't any experience in the cold North. I haven't spent much time in cold Winter regions for more than a decade.

But I do know of a fellow in Skull Valley, AZ; he's on the beesource forum: http://beesource.com/forums/member.php?u=63411
