Staff can help gardeners select flowers that extend bloom seasons, giving managed bee colonies more consistent forage throughout spring, summer, and fall. It's a practical resource for anyone building a bee-friendly landscape in central Indiana.

Frequently Asked Questions

What flowers at the farm are best for supporting honey bee colonies?
Many of the cutting flowers grown at pick-your-own farms, including sunflowers, zinnias, and lavender, are excellent forage for honey bees. Visiting during peak bloom and noting which plants draw the most bee activity is a good way to decide what to add to your own property.
Can I buy plants to grow near my hives?
Yes, the nursery side of the operation carries a range of plants, many of which are suitable for planting around an apiary. It's worth asking staff directly which varieties perform well in Clinton County's climate and soil conditions.
When is the best time to visit for pollinator-focused gardening?
Late spring through early fall is generally the most productive time to visit, when the widest variety of flowering plants are in season. Coming mid-summer gives you a chance to see which plants are actively attracting bees and other pollinators.
Do I need to bring anything for the pick-your-own experience?
Most pick-your-own farms provide buckets and cutting tools on-site, but it's always smart to call ahead and confirm. Wearing comfortable shoes and bringing cash or a card for payment is usually all that's needed.
Is this farm a good resource for beginning beekeepers in Frankfort?
Absolutely. Having access to a local source of diverse, pesticide-conscious flowers is one of the most practical advantages a new beekeeper can have. The nursery can also point you toward perennials that reduce how much replanting you need to do year after year.
Are the plants sold here safe for bees and free from harmful pesticides?
It's a fair question and one worth asking directly when you visit. Many small Indiana farms are mindful of pollinator health, but confirming their spray practices with staff will give you confidence before planting anything near your hives.
