THE BUCKWHEAT CYCLE: FROM FLOWERING TO HONEY HARVEST

The flowering period for buckwheat, generally extends from mid-June to early September. During these summer months, the vast buckwheat fields are transformed into an impressive natural spectacle, with their white flowers blooming in abundance. These flowering buckwheat fields become a paradise for foraging bees, attracted by the sweet nectar they offer.

The buckwheat honey harvest begins towards the end of August and continues until the beginning of September. This is a crucial time for beekeepers, as they must pay attention to the optimal time to harvest honey. An early harvest can result in honey that is less rich in flavor, while a late harvest can cause the honey to crystallize quickly, altering its texture.
