The story of the beekeeper included
PROVENANCE
This honey comes from bees that Kaz keeps by fields just outside Petworth and within flying distance of Ebernoe Common and Nature Reserve. I visited on a very damp November day and even then it was a beautiful spot to be. I'm not sure my photos do it justice!
Before having her own bees Kaz spent a few years working for other beekeepers in the UK and New Zealand. Now she keeps over 50 hives in apiaries across Sussex, Kaz uses only sustainable beekeeping methods to produce her honey from this lovely part of the world. Kaz trained as an engineer but then she got the beekeeping bug and is working hard to make her living from her bees.
SUSTAINABILITY
We work with small scale British beekeepers who we visit to talk bees with and see the bees and landscapes that make each honey. All of our beekeepers are good custodians of their bees and the woodlands, meadows, gardens and fields they keep them in. They talk to local farmers, landowners, fellow allotment owners and councils to encourage planting for pollinators, sustainable woodland management and protecting the natural landscape for their bees. Our aim is to bring you special limited edition honeys from more and more British beekeepers: as long as they're good custodians of their bees of course!
Our jars and labels are all British sourced to keep our transport miles and carbon footprint low. We absorb the extra cost.
DELIVERY
Sent by 2nd class tracked postage with Royal Mail, with postage charged depending on weight. So my Top Tip - postage on 2 or 3 jars costs the same as it does for one jar, just saying ;)
Our honeys are safely packed in Yorkshire hay and British sourced cardboard boxes, Opening the box is a treat with the sweet smell of summer and our jar of honey nestling inside.
