Why is it a problem if the bees work on your veges?
I was wondering exactly the same thing. I'm always happy to see the
bees at work and because of reports of declining population now spend
a lot of time just watching out for where the bees are working to make
sure I have a healthy active population in my garden.
One way to have an active healthy bee population in your garden is to have
a hive or two of your very own . We've wanted to do this for several years
and are now in a place where we can . I'll be picking ours up established
colony , from a local beekeeper at the end of May after the sustainability
weekend beekeeping class . We've seen bees here , but very few - and we're
putting an orchard in this year . There are other pollinators around , but I
like the other benefits of having bees .
