The very best advice anyone can give a beginner is to find local
beekeepers and make friends of them.  You may have to try several
before you find one that you' hit it off with'.
 
Try any local beekeeping clubs or supply stores, and ask at you local
government agriculture office.  Select someone who is not trying to
do everything differently from others, but is co-operative and
knowledgeable.
 
To try to do it on your own from what you read here or in books is to
ask for a lot of unecessary expense, failure, and suffering.
 
Your new friend will help you find what you need and interpret what
the bees do.
 
Good luck!
