Taglines has featured many stories on the demise of bee populations in the region and today it is good to report an episode of bee solidarity. In fact there is an association called SolAbeille which aims to help apiculteurs throughout France and this weekend members mobilised to help colleagues in the south west.
The Ariege department has been particularly affected by losses and apiculteurs from all over France met this weekend to transfer more than 2 million bees in 70 swarms to the Pyrenean region. One can only hope that this action will be fruitful in preserving mountain plant species and local honey.
