Made by bees from plant and tree resin mixed with

Made by bees from plant and tree resin mixed with beeswax, salivary secretion and pollen. Propolis contains around 50% balsam, 30% beeswax, 10% essential oils and 5% pollen, with the rest made up of vitamins, minerals and amino acids. It is anti bacterial, antifungal and anti inflammatory.

No surprise the bees use it to coat the inside of their hives and why it's used for its many medicinal properties, it also smells great!. The more we learn about bees the more we realise we know hardly anything. We have so much to learn from nature.

Not something you see everyday. Before winter it's

Not something you see everyday. Before winter it's necessary to ensure the bees are as healthy as possible. One way of doing this is to treat the hive with an organic compound which removes the deadly varroa mite from the colony. Here we are treating one of our hives using a oxalic sublimator. This process needs to be done 4 times on each hive. Healthy hives going into winter means healthy bees next year. Beekeeping does make you forward think...

Love the way our amazing bees store their honey in

Love the way our amazing bees store their honey in the cells. Each cell looks like a little pot of liquid gold. Once the cells are full and the moisture content reduced, the bees seal the cells with beeswax. Thankfully they have stored so much excess we can remove some for our use, and leave them enough for winter. Absolutely beautiful...

With schools finally open again, now is a good time to stock up on some pure, unprocessed local honey from @bushwoodbees. A spoon of honey in a warm glass of water with some lemon and ginger is a well-known home remedy for coughs and a sore throat.

Honey extraction workshop - thanks @adrienne_aslan & @okanaslan52 for hosting the workshop we ran yesterday at @stoneminimarket.

Our bees cleaning up their honey after some honey

Our bees cleaning up their honey after some honey comb had broken off in their hive.. Such industrious creatures. The honey wil be fed back to this hive so they have enough for winter.

Even though we have had such extremes in weather our local bees have managed to bring in plenty of excess honey for us to extract.

Last day of our beekeeping course and last course

Last day of our beekeeping course and last course for this year. It's been an absolute pleasure teaching and great to see the progress made by all. Our students received their certificates, went over cleaning hives, overwintering, build up of Nucleus colonies, swarm control, siting of hives and handling. We will provide remote support and wish all students a successful start to their beekeeping journeys. Exciting times ahead! #beekeepingjourney #beekeepingcourses
