Honeybees and Soil Care Foundation

Planning a bee-friendly habitat

Introductory website resource

Start with your local conditions

The foundation’s project concept proposes approximately 1,000 square feet of bee-friendly habitat. Adapt a plan to the site’s soil, water availability, sunlight and locally suitable native species.

Questions for your planting plan

  • Which native Indian trees, shrubs and plants grow well locally?
  • Can a mix of plants provide flowers across different seasons?
  • Who will water and care for the habitat?
  • How will the community observe flowering and pollinator activity?

Discuss plant selection and site preparation with a local horticulture or biodiversity expert before planting.
