Welcome to our little piece of local honey bee heaven.
Our attempt to help the humble but amazing honey bee.
A day doesn’t go past where we don’t hear gloom and doom stories about the negative influence that humans are having on the planet, from global warming to plastics, pollution, overpopulation, and so on. It can be overwhelming and it’s easy to think the problem is too big for individual efforts to make any difference. Honey bees are also suffering.
Well along with others cutting and recycling the plastic waste we are taking a hobby of beekeeping to the next level by helping to house honey bee swarms that can frighten some people and not knowing what to do they panic and call a pest control company. The result is often a massive loss to the bee population. A population us as human beings are totally reliable on the pollinate our flowers but more importantly our food crops.
We hope this small effort will help the bees which amaze us and are such a vital cog in the wheel of life on planet earth.

I can (and do) spend hours stood near the hives just watching the bees coming in and out. Giving messages to one another, chasing away bees that don't belong...

Extreme weather today in Cheshire. Snow!!! But some of our hardy bees don't let that stop them even when the temperature is only 3 degrees
