Same Bees 🐝 same location and actually same honey - 🍯 natural raw unfiltered honey will set in time it’s viscosity is determined by age and temperature. If we were to warm the jar on the left it would revert to runny honey same as the right. Honey is the only food product which doesn’t spoil with age. More magic made by our prized honeybees 🪴🐝👍Did you also know if you buy cheap supermarket honey - 80%of it comes from China, it’s blended, finely filtered and therefore limits the natural benefits associated with raw honey - we encourage you buy local from your farm shop - just be mindful however as it is unpasteurised you are advised not to give this to children under 3rd old ~ you really can taste the difference and so so good for you

Happy Bee 🐝 Day from our hardworking girls … yes girls, it is the ladies that do all the hive cleaning, nursing and foraging. I’m not saying the boy drones don’t play a part but those lady honey bees 🐝 really warrant a shout out on National Bee Day - enjoy
