Everyone loves a herbal garden! We do, the bees do, the butterflies do… and in this garden there is something for everyone.

Just as some plants are especially good at supporting the health of bees by providing abundant pollen and nectar, certain plants are equally beneficial for our well-being. The Bee Herbal Garden is a selection of herbs that are just as valuable for the bees as they are in the herbal apothecary.

Once established, these perennial herbs will bloom continuously for six months every year. Starting with thyme in the Spring, ending with goldenrod in the Autumn, these flowers provide the bees with an abundant supply of food; in return, the bees provide an essential service in pollinating the herbs and other plants around your garden.

Growing a herbal garden for the bees is a wonderful way to cultivate a truly healing habitat in which all creatures can thrive.

Species included: Bee Balm (Monarda fistulosa), Echinacea purpurea, Goldenrod (Solidago virgaurea), Licorice Mint (Agastache foeniculum), Motherwort (Leonurus cardiaca), and Thyme, Common (Thymus vulgaris).
