new category added in WWB Resource library
« on: March 16, 2017, 11:13:07 pm »
We have added a new Category in the Worldwide beekeeping Resource library "Honey bee foraging for nectar and pollen."  Please take a look and give us a hand adding to the information.  It can be for your region or any other information related to the topic.  Thanks again for keeping WWB on top for beekeeping forums :)

Riverrat, are we combining previous threads into this new category?  I notice What is blooming, when and where is no longer under General Beekeeping.

Yes.  We had so much good information spread out on honey plants pollen ect. on the forum we decided to combine it into one area for easier reference

I am working on one for the display at the fair. A large poster / banner and I am putting a April till September time line and having photos of plants connected to the blooming time of the plants as well as the plant name and whether it is a nectar, pollen, or a plant that provides both for the bees. It will be region specific, but I have lists of bee forager plants for the southern interior, northern interior and the cost regions of the Provence. I want to have the one for the southern interior done for the fair at the end of August. And if it turns out well I will put the next two together to display at the honey producers conference at the end of October. When done I will post it here. will have to figure out the pest way to PDF it so it fits with in the file size restraints of attachments. Might have to do a video capture and post it to You-tube, but will worry about that when the time comes.

I look forward to seeing this.  Sounds very cool and maybe something I would like to do for my region.
