Hi everyone, been lurking quite a while and now I have a space to put hives in next year so I've got some questions to ask. First thing does anyone know if there is any kind of an organization for beekeepers in the Quad-Cities area in Illinois?
Also Im assuming it would be better to pick up package bees in the spring than to ship them. Is there a close place to the Quad Cities where I could order and pick up the packages?
Thanks for any help in advance and for all of the interesting reading Ive enjoyed so far.
