Floral origins of our honeys
The Pyrenees, on the Mediterranean side, has a floral diversity particularly favorable to the practice of pastoral beekeeping. The flowering occurs early in coastal plains and later in altitude.
It is not rare to find rosemary flowers in January and arbutus in bloom in late November.
By moving the hives in a radius of 100 km, we are able to produce in this region almost all honeys that can be produced throughout the French territory.
Here are some flowers and plants of our region on which our bees delight themselves.
