At 11am, we pause.

We will remember them.

Jodie’s getting our honey and products ready for the Christmas eco markets. The sitting room is now mostly boxes, with occasional glimpses of sofa. 🍯  

A little look at the preparation before it all reaches the stall.

A hello from Lynn, Jodie and Estelle 👋

Three women working across operations, biodiversity, beekeeping and marketing at Plan Bee, alongside our UK beekeeper network.

Lovely to put some faces to the names.

If you’re having a bonfire tonight, check just before lighting.

Then enjoy your evening, knowing you’ve taken a little extra care of your garden’s residents.

From all of us at Plan Bee, have a lovely Bonfire Night.

Not sure how to eat them?

Bee pollen: sprinkle over yoghurt.
Honeycomb: try with cheese. Yes, the wax is edible!

@apiculturalLdn Hi there! Thank you for your comment and we totally agree!! That’s why we always complete site visits to establish whether the colonies will thrive and the optimum habitat for them. We also conduct weekly visits by our trained beekeepers and report back to your clients.

Friday quiz 🐝 Where can a beehive live?

🏰 Castle grounds
🏙️ City rooftop
🏨 Hotel garden
🥃 Distillery

Answer: all of the above.

Unexpected spaces can make wonderful homes for bees. Could your site be next?

Jodie’s been out talking bees! 🐝

A lovely visit with the North of Tyne and Gateshead eye screening team, chatting about workplace hives and getting hands-on with beeswax.

You have a beekeeper’s attention. What’s your first question?

Finding the queen? Harvesting honey? Or how protective the suit really is?

Ask us below. No beekeeping knowledge required. 🐝

Honey turning grainy? Crystallisation is a natural process: glucose forms crystals, changing its texture.

Some prefer a drizzle. Others want honey that stays on the toast.

Runny or set — which gets your vote? 🍯

[Plan Bee Ltd @planbeeltd]

A jar of honey rarely stays full for long. 🍯

Toast and porridge are the usual suspects. But a drizzle over roast carrots or a spoonful in a salad dressing deserves a mention too.

Where does yours go? Tell us your most unexpected combination.

On #WorldMentalHealthDay, a small thought from Plan Bee:

A shared interest can start a conversation. Listening gives it somewhere to go.

If someone’s been on your mind, check in. Give them time to answer, and let them tell you what would help.

Something to look forward to next season: two hours with a Plan Bee beekeeper, a guided hive visit and honey tasting. 🐝

Who would you bring along?

[Plan Bee Ltd @planbeeltd]

Two weeks until National Honey Day on 21 October. Plenty of time for some important tasting research. 🍯

Toast with banana, yoghurt, cheese or straight from the spoon?

What’s your favourite way to enjoy honey? We’re particularly interested in the combinations we haven’t tried.
