Above, a bee pollinates an apple blossom.
Our 85 hives of rented honeybees have just concluded their work for the 2010 season. Our farm crew had to dash into high gear this season, as temperatures soared early, and the result was the onset of pear, peach and then apple blossoms almost 2 weeks early.
We are praying that no more frost comes along to kill the tender buds... the danger zone lasts till mid-May along the Connecticut coastline.
We have captured many great shots of blossom time in our orchards.
