I am new to the forum and wanted to introduce myself.
I am fairly new to beekeeping - second year actually - and have 2 hives in my backyard. I harvested 28 pounds of honey from my year-old hive and none from my new hive, which is fairly typical for a first-year hive. I hope to have 50-60 pounds of honey next year and want to make some mead out of some of it.
I have been reading and studying and will be mostly lurking here to learn since I won't get started right away. My husband used to make his own beer when he lived with his brother so he has some experience in the fermentation process.
I also have a spinning wheel and spin my own yarn and also make my own soap. My husband didn't even when I told him about my new hobby LOL
