My Honeybees are kept in the garden. The distance each bee flies in it's life is astonishing and the average flying distance when foraging for food (Nectar and Pollen) can bee as far as 5 miles one way. However, the normal distance is probably less than
1 mile.

I do not use any Chemicals in the garden. You may have heard of the Varroa Mite -
Unlike many Beekeepers, for the past 15+ years, I have not used any chemicals or any other treatment to kill mites. The Bees have adapted very well and it is my belief that they have built up their own resistance against the mite and other pests.

All of the Honey I sell is raw, pure and produced locally by my bees with nothing added. Frames of Honey are removed from the hives and the honey is then extracted and placed in a settling tank, coarsely filtered with no heat involved. After a few days go by in order to let the air bubbles disperse, the Honey is placed into Jars.

It will then set naturally within a few weeks, even quicker somtimes if stored in a cool place.

Important: Honey is best stored in the cool and dark, eg. a cupboard, out of the Sun's rays that will destroy some of the natural goodness and which may also cause a little fermentation.

Note: Those little lumps or white flecks you may see in the jar are a sign that your honey is not bad; it’s just changing. It’s crystallized honey, and it’s totally natural, as close to natural as possible! More facts can be read here.
