Learn how cover crops planted before, during, and after almond bloom can support honey bee health and improve pollination outcomes. In this Seeds for Bees® video, beekeepers, scientists, and growers share research and personal experience on how flowering plants offer bees vital nutrition at a critical time—and how that benefits almond yields and beyond.
Topics covered:
How cover crops help build stronger bee colonies
Why diverse pollen sources improve bee health
Real-world results from growers and beekeepers
Best cover crops for nectar and pollen (hint: brassicas!)
Why planting habitat can boost pollination and reduce costs
What stronger bees mean for almonds—and the next crops
This video is a must-watch for growers, beekeepers, and anyone interested in how regenerative practices like cover cropping can power pollination and build healthy ecosystems.
