CHESHIRE HONEY,                          TYTHERINGTON

The bees are out foraging all day every day now in the hot sun!!  Our garden is in full beautiful colour with pollen being collected from roses, foxgloves, clematis, phlox, campanula and summer bedding plants.

The hives are overflowing with honey now and we have plenty available for collection - nothing taken, nothing added, pure, filtered and jarred up!   

Remember, a saucer of water with stones outside will provide drinking water for them - they will stand on the stones and drink without getting their wings wet! 

PLEASE NEVER USE PESTICIDES!! Warm water with salt poured on weeds is all that is needed - remember, a weed is just a flower in the wrong place!  Bees LOVE dandelions!

Plant lavender, yarrow and open blooms which are easy for the bee to get pollen from; wild flowers, wild roses, dandelions...

If you see a honey bee resting on the ground (looks like a very small wasp!) you could help it by giving it a saucer of water with stones in so it can stand on the stones to get a drink without getting wet - you could also add sugar/honey to feed it and help the whole of humanity because without the bees, we cannot survive! 

Other plants bees love are cosmos, yarrow, marigolds, sunflowers, golden rod, snowdrop, ivy, crocus, daffodils, fennel, geraniums, asters, poppies, cotoneaster, geraniums, open roses, petunias, daisies, pansies, globe thistles...
