Not a bad spot for an apiary… 🌸🐝
Part of the land surrounding one of our bee sites has been turned into a huge 300 acre wildflower field, with large areas of Crimson Clover now coming into flower.
This kind of planting is fantastic for: 🐝 Pollinators
🌱 Soil health
🦋 Wildlife
🍯 Strong healthy bee colonies
The sound walking through the field is unreal. Bees everywhere. With forage like this on their doorstep, colonies can build incredibly quickly and make the most of the season ahead.
This is exactly the sort of thing we need more of across the countryside. 👏
