NECTAR SEEDS FOR BEES - Invite a bee to lunch!

The shaggy red clover and the gorgeous blue bunchgrass or the super-healthy purple thistle? Let's break up the dull yellow vistas of the canola fields together. I've mixed this mix of seeds for you because I'm a beekeeper.

I have to take care of my bees all year long in order to get a piece of honey. To watch them, to treat them, to winterize them, to check on the queen at all times, and most importantly, it is my responsibility to provide them with a replacement for some of the honey I took away from them that you enjoy so much!

This involves quite an expensive mixture of carbohydrates and vitamins that I return to the hive. And new hives, refurbishing equipment, paints, spacers, fumigators, constant refurbishing of bee work (frames and interstitials), expensive stainless steel processing tools, and certified original jars, all of which keep getting more expensive.

Many people think that by selling honey a small responsible beekeeper makes a profit. However, selling the surplus is primarily to make money to feed the bees to get them through the winter.

But winter for bees doesn't start with snow. It starts in July and August, when nothing much blooms and the so-called winter generation of bees begins to hatch.

And here come those who are not indifferent to nature. You can sow seeds of herbs that will flower at the very time when every flower is important to the bee.


This 30g bag has the following instructions on it:

The mixture is not for eating!

The best time for sowing is from March to July. Perhaps on the edge of a field that is not mowed, in a meadow, around roads, etc. If you have a garden, be sure to prepare a shallow container of water for the bees (and some stones so they can climb out and not drown) so they have somewhere to drink the treat! :)

Sowing is possible from March to September.
