Hi everyone, im new from CA and interested in starting Bees this year. First off can i keep bees somewhere it snows?

You sure can.Winter prep is just a little different.We get snow in PA all the time,and some others here keep them where it snows a bunch. Cold and snoww won't hurt the bees if taken care of proper.
