The beginning of winter saw unseasonally warm weather meaning the honey just keeps coming!
The Stony Mallee (Diversifolia) has not only yielded (given honey) through the winter which is unusual, but it’s also provided plentiful pollen (bee protein). The bees are very healthy and breeding well. We’re off to a good start for pollenating the Almond trees in the Riverland in August. The warm weather has also enabled the ground flora to flower early providing different pollens (i.e. bees get a varied diet).
