Orchard & Apiary
The fruit trees in the orchard area and apiary (bee hives) complement each other very well. The fruit trees benefit from improved pollination and the bees obtain a rich supply of nectar & pollen. The fruit trees include apple, pear, cherry greengage & plum. The bee hives number between 2 & 5 depending on time of year and effectiveness of the bee-keepers! In a typical year over 200lbs of honey are collected and wax obtained for candles and polish.
