Bees Supportive Garden Plan Boosts Crop Pollination Across Saskatchewan
Saskatchewan crops rely on bees for pollination and the province yields roughly a quarter of Canada’s honey. A diverse environment with trees, shrubs, perennials, and annuals sustains bee health from spring to fall. Plant magnets include borage, bee balm, heliotrope, sweet clover, lavender, prairie crocus, chives, joe pye weed, and salvia. Include fruit trees like raspberry and Saskatoon to aid bees. Late season blooms such as sunflowers and asters extend nectar flow. Keep lawns herbicide free to protect dandelions as early spring forage. Hanbidge, Lead Horticulturist, Orchid Horticulture, offers guidance via orchidhort.com and social channels.
