BEES are in the air!

I know I'm obsessed, but seriously, they seem to be popping up everywhere....like the fashion pages of the New York Times magazine today....For anyone who's interested, I posted some more pictures of my bees, taken by my wonderful co-keeper Christina. You can check them out here.

Wow! I have always wanted to 'keep' bees (Melissa means honeybee in greek). I actually have a backyard in San Francisco. I wonder if it would work out. How does one start?

Hey Melissa:
A great place to start is the San Francisco Beekeeper's Association. (sfbee.org). They are a super friendly group of beekeepers who meet every 2nd Wednesday at the Randall Museum in San Francisco (randallmuseum.org). You don't have to be a member to attend, just show up and ask questions and meet people.
