The association of bees and lavender is a characteristic feature of Haute-Provence: the action of bees increases the yield of lavender oil and ensures its pollination. Lavender honey, which is highly fragrant and delicately flavored, as well as "all-flower" honey, benefit from the strong presence of aromatic plants: lavender and lavandin, of course, but also thyme, rosemary, savory, hyssop... which are all valuable melliferous plants, flowering at different times of the year.
