Hello everyone,
We're in East Tennessee and have had 4 days experience with bees!
We have started with 5 hives and are enjoying watching and learning about them. We plan to join a local club if possible, and appreciate any good advice you seasoned keepers would offer.
Thanx, and best wishes to all.

Welcome, we are full of advice or something anyway.

Welcome. Five hives is usually more than most beginners are willing to spend to start. Most want to start with one hive. We usually convince them to start with at least two hives. But, five hives is even better! The more you have, the more you can compare, and the more you can learn.

Spend some time reading and searching on here, there is plenty to learn. Good Luck!
