Blueberry Nectar Flow


The sweet perfume of blueberry blossoms pulls the honey bees and bumble bees into the lure of sweet reward...poliinating for a cross pollinated crops for me and sweet nectar to take back to the hive for the colony. I keep 5 colonies of honeybees for this sole purpose that happens every April here at Cloud 9 Farm. It's a little later than normal with the much needed rains and the long lasting blackberry winter but welcome as the true sign of spring.
