🐝✨ Our Black Native Bees in Action! ✨🐝 🐝✨ Our Black Native Bees in Action! ✨🐝

Late October didn’t slow our incredible black native bees down! Even as the days get shorter and the temperatures drop, they’re busy foraging, tending the hive and keeping their colony strong.

It’s a privilege to care for these native bees and share a glimpse of their world with you.

🍯🐝 A Special Treat for David! 🐝🍯 We c 🍯🐝 A Special Treat for David! 🐝🍯

We couldn’t resist sharing this natural heather honeycomb, freshly cut earlier in the season, just for David - knowing how much he loves it! A couple of our busy bees even landed on it for a quick snack (never feed bees honey, it can pass disease to them).

Honeycomb is one of nature’s most incredible creations. The bees make it themselves from wax, they also produce themselves, carefully building each hexagonal cell in the dark of the hive. Inside these tiny, perfectly structured cells, they store pure, golden honey, the same honey we get to enjoy. It’s a testament to nature’s precision, teamwork and ingenuity.

There’s something magical about harvesting honeycomb: seeing the honey glisten, knowing it was made entirely by bees, with no machines, no shortcuts, just nature doing its thing. Truly a gift of the natural world! 🌿💛
