Our very own HSSCU honey, harvested from the rooftop of our High Street offices, was used by the talented Erica Drum to create a mouthwatering apple cake! 🍰 🍯 Watch it on Instagram below. 🐝 @InnerCityBee8 #Dublin #Sustainability #Bees

With the new season approaching, our hives are getting busier. The queen will soon ramp up egg-laying, and the worker bees will start foraging for fresh nectar and pollen.

Spring is one of the most exciting times in beekeeping—full of growth, activity, and buzzing energy.

Nature’s Tiny Navigators! 🐝

Even though the sun has been hiding lately, our bees still use it as their compass to find food and navigate home. They can see ultraviolet light, revealing hidden patterns on flowers that guide them straight to nectar.

The weather may be sharp, but at least it’s sunny! Did you know? Honeybees navigate using the sun as their compass. Even on cloudy days, they can sense the sun’s position through polarized light, making them expert navigators.

Our bees have been braving the recent stormy weather like true troopers, safely tucked away in their hives. Despite the wind and rain, they’re staying strong, and we’re making sure they’re well looked after during these challenging conditions 🌧️💛

[Inner City Beekeeping Project - Bee8 @InnerCityBee8]

With the red weather warning in place, our Bee8 team is hard at work ensuring our hives are secure and our bees are safe from the incoming storm. Winter is a tough season for bees, and unpredictable weather makes it even more important to stay prepared

Jars of our sustainable, locally produced honey are being prepped to be delivered to our partnering hive hosts. Each jar is a sweet reminder of the hard work our bees do and the crucial role they play in sustaining ecosystems and boosting biodiversity.
