British Summer Honey - 227g/8oz
This honey has been foraged by the bees throughout the summer months here in Bristol and is made from a wide variety of summer flowering plants surrounding the bee hives. Once harvested, the honey is spun out of the frames, lightly filtered and poured into jars. It’s as fresh as it gets!
My favourite ways to enjoy honey are in my morning tea or coffee, with cheese and crackers or simply a teaspoon on its own where you can really taste the flavour and feel the texture. Enjoy the most wonderful food that nature gives us!
Please note, postage costs are the same for up to four jars of honey, and to learn more about how the honey is made watch the video below.
How it's made
Hi I'm Alex
I was lucky enough to grow up in the countryside on the edge of a woodland which allowed me to spend much of my time outdoors, going fishing, foraging mushrooms and learning about the trees, plants and animals that surrounded me. I also have an interest in food and cooking so it’s no surprise that I found myself a hobby that involves both nature and food.
4 years ago in the summer of 2021 a friendly beekeeper gave me a box full of bees. I took them home in the back of my car and my beekeeping journey began. Over the past few years I have learnt how to keep bees and harvest honey and it’s so fulfilling being able to share that honey with others.
However, beekeeping is seasonal work and mostly a summer activity which means I can enjoy some time away from the bees in the winter months, where you’ll probably find me skiing in the mountains!
I also have a load of other hobbies and find it hard to fit everything in! I love playing racquet sports such as tennis and badminton. I enjoy gardening too and each year try to grow a wide variety of fruit and vegetables in my garden.
Anyway, thanks for visiting my website and I hope you enjoy the honey!
