More Bees Please

We are a family run beekeeping business based in Sheffield & Rotherham.  We are passionate about bees and the amazing effect they have on the environment.  We are expanding our Beekeeping to try and improve the quality of Bees in the local area, and also the number of pollinators in the local vicinity.  We have set up our own breeding program to improve the quality and disease resistant strain of bees. 

We have over 300 hives in South Yorkshire & Derbyshire. We are ethical beekeepers, and look after our bees well. During the winter months, we ensure that the bees have enough honey stores to survive the winter, without feeding sugar syrup. We are putting the bees before any profit, unlike most large bee farming companies.

We also aim to introduce Hives to as many schools, raise awareness with children and hopefully find Beekeepers of tomorrow.  Also check out our "More Bees Please" page for more information about our plan to spread hives around Yorkshire with the help of as many businesses as possible.

Our Honey is unpasteurised and filtered to the absolute minimum, to ensure you get the natural Honey how the bees intended.  This is something that you don't get from shop bought Honey.  We also sell other natural products from the hive, including Cut Comb Honey, Creamed Honey, Beeswax Polishes and a full range of Beauty & Pet Products.

Description

Half-Day Beekeeping Experience – Dive into the World of Bees!

Get ready for an exciting half-day adventure as you delve into the fascinating world of honeybees and the art of beekeeping.

Morning Session – Introduction and Safety Briefing: Arrive at the charming beekeeping farm, where the sweet fragrance of blooming flowers and the gentle hum of bees welcome you. Meet your friendly beekeeper guide, who will provide you with an introduction to beekeeping and its importance in sustaining our ecosystem. Receive a safety briefing and get outfitted in a beekeeper’s suit, ensuring you’re fully prepared to interact with the bees safely.

Part 1 – Hive Exploration and Bee Knowledge: Accompanied by your experienced beekeeper, approach the beehives and witness the bustling activity of the bees. Learn about the vital roles of worker bees, the queen, and the drones, and discover the intriguing social structure within the hive. Observe the bees as they diligently collect nectar and pollen, working together in harmony to create their precious honey.

Part 2 – Hands-On Beekeeping Experience: Now it’s time for the highlight of your day – a hands-on beekeeping experience! Under the guidance of the beekeeper, you’ll have the opportunity to inspect the hives, handle the frames, and observe the bees up close. Experience the thrill of working alongside these incredible creatures and gain insight into the delicate art of beekeeping.

Mid-Morning – Honey Tasting: After your exhilarating experience with the bees, take a moment to indulge in a honey tasting session. Sample a variety of delicious honey harvested right from the farm. Each type of honey comes from different floral sources, imparting unique flavours and characteristics. Savour the sweetness and complexity of the honey while learning about the diverse flora that contributes to its exquisite taste.

Conclusion – Q&A and Farewell: Conclude your half-day beekeeping experience with a Q&A session, where you can ask any lingering questions about bees, beekeeping, or the honey production process. Reflect on the significance of these tiny creatures in our ecosystem and how we can support their well-being. As you bid farewell to the beekeeping farm, you’ll take home newfound knowledge, sweet memories, and a deeper appreciation for the wonders of the world of bees.

A great gift idea for the budding Bee enthusiast, presented with a lovely gift certificate and envelope.
