Working with Bees
This page is all about our apiary and the bees that provide beeswax, honey and propolis for our natural skincare range.
This page will explain how we care for our bees and will be updated as and when we visit our bees and something interesting happens.
23 & 24th September 2017 we will be exhibiting our bee hive products at the RHS Autumn Show at The Three Counties Show Ground, Malvern as part of the Worcestershire Bee Keepers Association exhibit.
Good news....2 firsts and a second for photography!
Checking on the progress of the bees through the winter. I can hear they have moved up into the super and buzzing as they consume their honey stores.
