About us
Hello, we have been keeping bees in the gardens of our Cottage for a few years now and have enjoyed immensely learning to look after and care for them. We pride ourselves in harvesting the wonderful products the bees produce for us.
Currently we have a number of hives producing lots of lovely sweet honey from the gardens, fields and hedgerows around Maresfield in East Sussex.
In addition to the honey we also help the bees by collecting the older beautiful wax the bees produce as part of our yearly routine of replacing old wax with new. We filter in this in various different ways to make it wonderfully clean and this is then used to make Beeswax Wraps and Candles. Our Beeswax Food Wraps and Bags are made from 100% Beeswax with an added blend of jojoba oil and pine resin which is then impregnated into our lovely 100% cotton material to make our amazing food wraps.
You can use your beeswax wraps to wrap bread, a block of cheese or cover a bowl. Infact there are loads of foods you can cover with the wraps and once you have one you will realise exactly how many uses they have. Above all, you will also be doing your bit to help rid the world of single use plastics!
We are very passionate about the honey bee conservation and are members of various groups together with the British Bee Keepers Association https://www.bbka.org.uk
All the profit we make from our products go back into looking after the bees and ensuring they are well cared for.
Bee Happy!
