The Best Pollinator Year

I regularly switch out my raised vegetable beds to a cut-flower/pollinator garden, sometimes every other year, sometimes less regularly. 2019 was a standout for both the health of the garden, but also the abundance of pollinators. No fancy gear for these pictures, just a phone and lots of sunshine. When the food is this good, the bees (and friends) really don’t pay you any mind, they are gorging while the gorging is good. And with the raised beds being a couple feet high, they’re nearly at eye level. I may have used more than one seed mix in these beds, but I know for sure most of it is Botanical Interests Save the Bees Flower Mix.
