Bonnieux, France has three main pollen seasons: tree pollen in spring, grass pollen in summer, and ragweed pollen in late summer and early fall.
Tree pollen season usually starts in March and lasts until May. During this time, oak, ash, and hazelnut trees release their pollen into the air.
Grass pollen season typically begins in June and ends in August. Many types of grasses grow in Bonnieux, releasing large amounts of pollen into the air.
Ragweed pollen season usually starts in late August and lasts until the first frost. Ragweed is a common weed in Bonnieux that produces a lot of pollen.
When pollen counts are high, we suggest doing these things to help with allergies, especially on windy days when pollen is flying around.
