I have been brewing beer for a couple of years now but have never brewed mead...mostly because of a lack of good local honey at a reasonable price. I have made the first step in solving that issue. I just acquired a ton of secondhand beekeeping equipment. I think I have enough to set up 6 complete hives, although I think I will start with 2 and work up from there.
Any advice on books, references, suppliers, etc. is appreciated. I live near Fredericksburg, VA if there are any other brewers/beekeepers in the area. I am taking a class in February and hope to install my first bees in April. By this time next year I hope to be enjoying mead with the honey, hops and water coming straight off my little farm.
