Much of the natural bee population is being destroyed by pesticides, parasites and disease. Bees are an important element in our food chain, when it comes to the vegetables and fruits that we eat. In some cases, we have seen a 50% decline in the bee population, year-to-year. Keeping your own backyard beehive helps stimulate the bee population, as well as improving the quality of your garden, as well as the ecosystem around you.
Harvesting your own honey and increased pollination are only two of the many benefits of keeping your own backyard beehive. There are many other health, cosmetic and culinary products that can be made from your bee’s work. Honey also has a variety of anti-microbial and anti-bacterial properties.
Natural bee pollination will improve the quality of your plants, weather it is a formal garden, a mass of wildflowers or a harvest of fruits and vegetables.
