Everything about honeybees is fascinating. The more I read and learn about them, the more interesting they get.

@NurseDave tgat is an interesting hive design.
Grapevines produce no nectar to attract bees, and are self pollinating, using only wind and gravity for “grape sex”. Bees would only be useful to the other plants in and around the vineyard.

Yes, accurate point. They are a sustainable and regenerative biodynamic vineyard. Which was a new term for me. Many vineyards grow cover crops over the winter but apparently tilling under those crops every year hardens the soil and affects its biome. So they lease out goats to mow down the cover. Or at least we were told. We were even given a little sachet of the seed mix they use for the cover crops.
Don't sow those it in your groin area. Your dream of having a wildflower field down there is just not practical.
