Hello all, I joined to get more info on beekeeping.  My wife has been doing it for about 2 years now and I am starting to get more and more involved in it so I am trying to learn what I can and try and help her out.  She currently has 2 hives and about to get 2 more with plans on splitting at least one of the existing ones this coming spring so there should be plenty more for both of us to do.  I don't do any hands on work with the hives due to mobility issues but can help with most anything else.

I have already found some very helpful posts on here and look forward to reading through more and hopefully able to contribute on occasion as well.

Welcome to the forum Steve.  :smile:

A few suggestions: try to find a beekeeping club near you, many now have a mentoring program and equipment that you might use (extractor, etc); change your profile to include your location (it will help us help you); ask us any questions you like someone should be able to help you, we are here for each other.  -Mike

Listen to others but make your own decisions. That way you own the results.

We live near Raymond, MS and belong to local Bee club.  My wife has a mentor that has been helping her, I am just getting more involved now so looking different places for info.   Thanks for all the replies.
