Bee numbers are declining throughout the world. More than a third of what we eat relies on bees for pollination. One of the easiest ways to help bees is planting bee-friendly gardens, full of flowers that bees love to feed from. Bees need food, so they can help pollinate our food.
Bees will forage on these flowers for nectar and pollen, which provide carbohydrates and protein for growth and energy. Well-nourished bees are more capable of fending off disease and parasites.
The best flowers are wildflowers. They attract bees and beneficial insects into the garden.
