My parents bought me a book for Christmas of ‘23. I’ve been curious about beekeeping since the Cabarrus County fair. I read the book in 2 days while my house was abuzz with visitors. I just could not put it down.
I have a good idea on what my first steps are.
Today I ordered 2 packages of bees from a local place. A package is 3 pounds of bees (around 10,000!) and a mated and marked queen bee. Those don’t arrive for three months. In the meantime I need to get the hives ready.
Stick around! More to come.
