About us
Beekeeping for us is more than just about the honey! Bees are livestock which should be cared for like any other animal - kept in clean surroundings (clean wax), have adequate food (plenty of honey for themselves, pollen too) and be kept free of disease (without the use of chemicals).
So as you can imagine, keeping our bees and processing the excess honey crop takes up much of our spare time! Over the years we have built up a regular customer base of people who enjoy our locally produced honey. The carefully chosen apiary sites, all situated just outside of Berkhamsted are located to enable the bees to forage both gardens and the open countryside. Therefore the honey harvested by the bees reflects the broad spectrum of local pollens and flavours of the flowers, trees and crops.
