My wife and I have become interested in keeping bees after a visit to friends in France, we are both complete novices and just starting out. . We have decided this is best time for us to start so we can organize ourselves slowly into starting of this wonderful venture and hobby. I will be keeping the hive at the bottom of our back garden, were I am preparing the area in readiness to place the hive.
