Welcome to the forum Doug. I'm new as well. Haven't posted much as there is so much reading to do!

Hello & welcome!

I'm sure you'll find this forum to be a good source of information about bees & beekeeping. Be sure to check out the "How to Start Beekeeping" subforum - it contains a lot of good suggestions on beekeeping basics.

I also recommend getting involved with a local beekeeping club. Clubs often offer help to beginning beekeepers, and are great places to find mentors and get connected with nearby beekeepers.
