Habitat Aid is launching a small range of bee friendly non-native trees to complement the native trees and nectar plants they are already selling. These trees are recommended by the British Beekeepers’ Association, except for one specifically for bumblebees.

This is part of the continuing expansion of their product line in support of charities working to protect and promote biodiversity in the UK. They are donating half of their profit from the sale of these trees to the Laboratory of Apiculture and Social Insects at the University of Sussex. This is an important cause, and as a beekeeper himself, this cause is particularly close to the owner's heart. You can find the trees at http://www.habitataid.co.uk/acatalog/exotic_trees.html and more information from the contact details below.
