Fen Apiaries – Local honey, wax and my artwork.

I

I am a beekeeper and artist based in Baston with over 100 hives. Our hives are in Baston, Baston Fen, Pickworth, Thurlby Fen, Little Bytham and Deeping St Nicholas. Raw local honey only filtered once and unheated. We haven’t used chemicals in our hives for 11 years as our bees weed out the varroa. We breed all our own bees from our garden in Baston.

Local honey, wax, polish and twirlers for sale every day outside 30 Church Street, Baston PE6 9PE from the top of the white hive in the front garden (roughly between 9am-6pm). Money in the black letterbox please.
