Local Honey

 

There has been much interest in the reputed properties of honey for the treatment of hay fever. The theory is that local honey, that has not been over-processed, will contain the same pollen as that which is causing an allergic reaction. By regularly taking small amounts of honey, immunity will be achieved. Honey also tastes delicious!

 

Consequently, requests for suppliers of ‘local’ honey are regularly received.   Unfortunately, the data protection laws prevent us from providing details directly to enquirers without the express permission of the beekeeper.

 

The beekeepers listed below, have honey for sale and have agreed to their contact details being published on this web site. If you are interested in purchasing then you should contact them directly for more information.

The continued fine warm weather during March, April and May coupled with the lack of rain has pushed the foraging season forward by up to three weeks.

 

This may result in a shortage of local honey after Christmas 2011.
