We finally have some warmer weather coming in the forecast, and that means it’s time for the dandelion bloom! I know most people think of dandelions as a weed in their lawn… But, they’re one of the season’s first bee foods! We LOVE to see the sunny yellow start to pop up everywhere this time of year. Until the fruit trees bloom, the dandelions provide bees with the nectar and nutrients they need to get started for the season… So, on this Earth Day, maybe pause the mowing, and let the dandelions bloom for for a couple weeks 🙂 And, while you’re at it… Plant some beautiful wildflowers for the bees to have later in the season.
