Supporting Pollinators This Spring

As spring arrives with warmer weather and blooming flowers, gardens in Beenleigh are busier, and local bees are increasingly active. Barun Samanta, manager of Golden Goodness Honey in Eagleby, explained that as temperatures rise and days lengthen after winter, bee activity grows.

He noted that the queen lays more eggs and the abundance of flowers provides ample food, leading to a rapid increase in bee populations. Beyond honey production, bees play a crucial role as pollinators, supporting healthy gardens and ecosystems. Pollination is their primary benefit, with honey also helping people with hay fever and allergies.
