Overview
Many people would like to make their own honey but think it's a very complicated, involved process. The truth is that beekeeping is a very simple undertaking and nearly anyone can learn to do it. It's a fascinating hobby that you can enjoy for years, spending very little of your own money but reaping enormous benefits.Things to think about-what will you do with the honey? Is it a hobby or a business? Do you garden a lot? Don't use pesticides if you have bees. Your neighbors may be using them and you can try to bribe them to stop with the promise of honey. Farmers nearby won't stop but bees do build up a tolerance to certain chemicals. You can make your own hives or you can buy a commercially manufactured hive. The great thing about beekeeping is that you only need one hive to start with. Hives are fairly small and can be kept in your back yard. In fact, many suburban beekeepers can be involved in this hobby for years and no one even knows they have a hive!
