Hobbyist beekeeper selling locally foraged honey from his Ainsworth Road Apiary.

Happy to say both hives have come through winter OK, considering other beekeepers are reporting heavy loses over winter. But both colonies are fetching pollen back to the hive which is a good indication that the queen is alive and laying eggs. Next challenge is getting through swarm season without one.

Beneath the moon, the bees take wing,
With a sweet enchantment in their sting,
Through twilight blooms where shadows meet,
They hum a spell: “Trick or Treat!”
No tricks here, just nature’s grace,
Local honey from Kefford’s place.
At just £7 a jar, let your taste buds scream—
For a honeyed, haunted Halloween dream!

2025 summer crop Honey will be available for delivery or collection from this Sunday onwards. Orders now being taken. Hives are currently over 6ft tall as the bees are currently in the process of cleaning up their honey frames, ready for next year! Bees have excelled beyond my expectations considering the hot dry weather of 2025.

Quick update for those waiting patiently to purchase honey. Bees have had a tough time this year, with all the dry warm weather restricting their supply of nectar. But my bees have currently found a new nectar source and the flow is back on. So until they’ve converted it and capped it over, the extraction process will have to wait a little longer! Supplies are so low, they’ve not attempted to use the spare jar capacity I gave them.
