About the event

While beekeepers are well-aware of the wild blooms, agricultural crops, and major nectar flows that yield a traditional honey harvest, our own backyards hold untapped potential to provide year-round nutritional resources for bees. Join Aaron Moore, Union County Commercial Horticulture Agent, for an engaging look into the world of honey bee forage. You will discover what makes a flower suitable for honey bees, how to select the right plants for your goals, and what you can plant to fill seasonal forage gaps. Learn how to transform your home landscape into a thriving "pocket pasture" that supports honey bee health throughout the seasons.
