Average age of a beekeeper

60 here. Expecting my first packages next month. Figured if I don't do it now, I never will.

*sigh* 32; and my first package is (hopefully) arriving next month.

38 years on me. 2 years keeping a couple hives. You people seem to imply that I am not a young beekeeper.
Can't say it was something I would have gotten into during the last couple of decades of moving to a new apartment annually.

[Gregg]

Just turned 46; sideliner with 700 hives, been keeping bees since 1992.

55. Hard to believe but only been doing bees...1 year.
