What makes our honey special?

Our honey is just as the bees made it. We don’t pasteurise, heavily filter or blend our honey. Each jar comes from a single apiary and reflects what the bees have foraged on- changing with each hive and season. Our honey tastes of a time and place.

Unlike supermarket honey- which can be heat-treated, ultra-filtered, bulk-blended from around the world, or even mixed with sugar syrup, we produce unprocessed and terrific honey.

Bee Welfare

We practise natural, respectful beekeeping.

Our bees keep their own honey for winter, which means smaller harvests, but more naturally managed hives.

We never clip queen bees’ wings, a common industry practice used to control swarming. Instead, we let our bees behave as nature intended.

Bees for Business

We manage beehives and pollinator-friendly spaces for organisations including L’Oréal and Nurture at their Manchester sites. If you’re interested in having a managed hive at your place give us a buzz- we’d love to help.
