Flowers and bees are all about love. A 130-million-year love story in which both flowers and pollinators have developed fascinating ways to meet. See what the flowers do to attract pollinators using color, scent, and appearance.
Flowers and bees are also about honey. Hear about life inside the hive where there is febrile activity. It is here that the pollen and nectar of the flowers turn into golden shimmer honey. The recipe has been passed down for millions of years and passed down from mother to daughter.
Join beekeeper and nature guide Caroline on a hike in the farming landscape. We visit apiaries in the flower meadow, in the garden and at the vegetable garden. When you leave here, you will have an understanding of the importance of the place to bees and pollination.
Back at Mittlandsgården we taste honey from the different apiaries. Feel the taste of the landscape and the diversity. Choose your own favorite to bring home — a gift for you from us and our bees.
