Does anyone have a good link to show how to get started. We'd really like them for pollination and could use the honey for mixing with the goats medicine each week (we use herbal wormers).

Getting Started with Beekeeping (http://www.themodernhomestead.us/article/Beekeeping.html)

this is a pretty good article for getting some general info.

I would def. find a local bee keepers organization and attend the meetings. The "old-timers" are a huge wealth of info (often contradictory as is the nature of beekeeping cause they are, well, animals and often unpredictable)

But the people there can answer a ton of q's and often will hold "bee school" in the Spring, when it is time to get started!!

There are you located and I can help find one if you can't find anything while googling your area + beekeepers assoc.
