Babe's Honey Farm

Supplying Vancouver Island and beyond with our delicious honey and cultured honey drinks!
(227)

Babe's Honey Farm was founded in 1945 by Babe & Charlie Warren with a small loan from a credit union and single beehive Charlie found in the forest. They spent their lives building Western Canada's favorite bee farm and provided Vancouver Island with local honey for over 60 years.

Have you ever seen a beehive living in a tree? Check this out! We got a call from a beekeeper who had a swarm move into a hollowed out tree. We gently removed the hive from the tree that was to be chopped down as it is rotten and at risk of falling down. Would you stick your hand inside this tree? Let us know in the comments 😄

We have some beautiful pure beeswax candles available in our farm store location. Did you know that beeswax is a coproduct of honey? I specifically use the term coproduct instead of byproduct because wax is no less important or valuable than honey. It may even be considered more precious than honey, and here's why: In order to make 1 pound of wax, 10 pounds of honey must first be consumed! Wax is secreted from 8 glands on the underside of a honeybees abdomen. It comes out in little tiny pieces that are then shaped by the mandibles and then to build all of the beautiful honeycomb inside a hive. Honeycomb is used to store honey, pollen, and for the queen to lay her eggs in. The hexagonal shape is the strongest in nature. If you've ever wondered by pure beeswax candles cost a little more than their petroleum based counterparts, here's why 😉🐝

Did you know that the color and flavor of honey is dependant on the type of flower the bees collect their nectar and pollen from? Honey comes in a huge variety of colors and flavors. At Babes Honey Farm, our two staple honey flavors are clover and wildflower. Stay tuned, because there may just be a fireweed crop this year! Comment below what your all time favorite variety of honey is

Did you know that a honeybee only produces about 1/12th of a teaspoon in its lifetime? A full sized established beehive can be home to upwards of 60,000 bees depending on the time of year, amount of honey and pollen available, and size of the cavity of their home.

Update: Found!!! Thanks for all your help!

LOST PUP in Saanich

This isn't honey or bee related, but we need your help.

There's a lost pup out there today and a concerned owner. They're both from out of town so we figured you might be able to help us out.

Morocco's out for a rip somewhere in Saanich or Greater Victoria since about 7:30 this morning. Last seen at Hampton Park this morning.

Let's bring him home safe.

Also posted on ROAM. We will update this post
