I have put out my first set of Mason Bees from the refrigerator as the peaches and nectarines are in bloom. There are also a few honey bees working the flowers, but once the Mason bees are active, they are much more efficient at pollinating than honey bees.

I have produced away more of these cocoons than I need for my garden and orchard so see this page for information on purchasing mason bees: https://www.gfletcher.ca/?p=1

I am now selling mason bee cocoons $6.00 per dozen which you can  order and then pick up from my farm in Metchosin British Columbia.
