All you need to do to win one hectare of pollen and nectar mixis take a photo of your existing farm flower mixes and send it to us. Our judge will then pick their favourite photo and if you are chosen as the lucky winner we will send you enough seeds to cover a hectare of land.
So why are the CFE running this competition?
Making sure there are plenty of pollinators on farms is a priority for us at the CFE and we believe it should be for thousands of British farmers too.
Providing food for pollinating insects is vital for farm businesses as the more cross pollination on farm the higher chance of a large yield.
The mix has been designed to attract and feed pollinators, along with hosting insects that are important food sources for farmland bird chicks. So having the bees and seeds mix will not only help your farm business but it will help all biodiversity that lives in and around your farm!
