Picking up my bees on Friday. 2 packages for handmade ktb hives. I am excited, and I am hoping that I can figure this out as I go along. Reading books, forums and watching youtube can only get me so far. The real test begins this weekend.

I am hoping the timing is right. I am about 20mi east of Bangor. The plum tree blossoms just went by and the lilacs, pear and apple trees are just about to open up. We just bought an old farm house. Lots of fruit trees around and a commercial orchard within 2 miles, but I am not familiar with the types of pollen that will be around after the fruit blossoms.
