hello from the northwoods
« on: May 22, 2015, 09:06:42 am »
Hello everyone! My wife and I are aspiring beekeepers in the woods of northern wisconsin. We can't put into words how excited we are to be part of the beekeeping culture.
We are both passionate about the health and beauty of our surrounding environment and are glad to be helping with our hives. We wish everyone a healthy hive of bees and good nectar flow this year!

Greetings from Eau Claire!   You found a great place for both advice and camaraderie.

By north woods, do you mean north of highway 8?
