Wisteria Blooming

Sharing a little Florida sunshine as our wisteria blooms. A little worried because I haven't been hearing the buzzing of the bumblebees. Usually they love all the flowers.


Did you know that the US population of bees is down by 40% overall? It's due to Colony Collapse Disorder and scientists think that might be caused by pesticides. Learn more here in this blog post from Slow Food USA and do what you can to help bees. Even if you don't like honey, we still need pollinators - about 30% of our food comes from honeybee pollination. Thank you!

  1. I am happy to report the bees are out today, buzzing happily away around the wisteria.
