Greetings! I'm a second year beekeeper in Spring Grove IL. I have 2 hives with one of them being rebooted with a new package of bees this spring.

Welcome - we share a lot in common with our beekeeping friends across the pond and a few differences.. You are located North of Chicago, so some really cold winters and some very warm summers then ? Lots of challenges for your beekeeping...

Yeah I'm really close to Wisconsin. I had 1 hive survive the winter and one that didn't. Winters can be harsh indeed.

Do you subscribe to Bob Binnie and Kamon Reynolds? They share a lot of information about US bee keeping.
