Healthy soil and sustainable growing

Wow.  I presume that's ususual.  My NW Ohio friends tell me how cold it's 
been, still haven't put their boat in Erie.  Latest ever.  

Spring was very late for most forest plants here this year but I've had a 
large number of buzzing critters in my garden.  As my wintered-over arugula's 
going to seed, we had the normal variety/quantity of "bees" (no entomologist 
here).

Second question: is it still possible to get bees and start home hives; and 
if so, where is the best place to look? There are others I can ask, but 
thought I'd ask here also. I went for a walk out in the pasture today, and 
saw a grand total of 2 bumble bees on the numerous dandelions, in all my 
walk. It was in the 70's here in Ohio.
