🐝 🐝 2024 HONEY ANNOUNCEMENT 🐝 🐝

Sorry for the late announcement of honey this year, took a little time out to recover after the anaphylactic reaction. Now for the more important stuff. I’ve just been up to the farm and confirm we are going to be doing a harvest this year 😀 a very good year to say the least 😀

Once the spinning starts we will then start to compile the first honey run. We also have a special something in store for this year…. We’ll give you a clue 🧑‍🎄 🎄 🐝

As always the honey will be £5 for a jar and £1 for delivery, 4 jars for £20 and free delivery. Also we have brand new honey stirrers for free, 1 per household 😀

Until then, thank you as always for your patience and as always thank you for your support over the years. We can’t wait to see you all again very very soon.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ SEASON 24 UPDATE ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you all for you wonderful messages of concern and well wishes. My face has now returned to normal and all medications have been completed. Now onto the more important stuff, we have ordered our jars and also some extra equipment to aid with a safer removal of honey supers. Of course we always put the bees first and will assess the levels of honey stores for the winter. Cariad Honey will be flowing very very soon!!

Don’t forget we are on YouTube as well and you can see our latest video on the recent incident too via the link below 🚑

⭐️⭐️🥇🏆⭐️⭐️

As always we will do our first jar of honey of the season competition 🐝 stay tuned for that one ☝️

We have already had many requests for orders but will announce very soon when it’s ready for order. As always we thank you our wonderful customers and for all your kind words and also our service partners such as our land owner whom has always been very accommodating and hospitable.

Same prices as always 🐝🍯🐝

Well that was an eventful night last night, thank you to all my family members for your support and help. Despite not having the best of care last night in A&E, I would like to say a huge thank you to the paramedics that came to my aunt and uncle’s house to help me. Also to the doctors that supported me today. Beestings are inevitable in the world of beekeeping and everyone reacts differently, I was helping my uncle to spin his honey, just before our crop as we always do. Then a bee managed to go into my veil and she decided to remind me she’s the more powerful one. She won, I lost. The feeling of your throat closing and breathing becoming laboured is quite scary. Dad swiftly arrived and used an epipen, paramedics whom were stars came at the same time and took me in. Anywho the motto of the story is never underestimate the power of allergens and the importance of how fragile life truly is. Always look after yourself. I’ll update you soon on our personal honey crop, however for the interim I can happily endorse the crop my uncle has and it tastes beautiful. Super excited for ours but once I have the go ahead I’ll be able to promote his honey for sale. For now from me and Amy we will update you soon. But rest is needed. Thank you again to everyone involved 🐝

Good Morning All,

Itchy eyes & sniffly nose upon you with very high grass pollen and medium tree pollen. Off to see the bees today and will see if we have survived the June gap, which is when they collect no nectar or pollen. Then the real fun begins, the summer flow, the biggest and heaviest of honey flows.

Take your anti histamines or local honey (Not in stock with us yet) and then look after yourself.

Spending Father’s Day with my youngest, checking on our little nuc in the garden that we made a split on. After witnessing her mating flight last week and now meeting her in all her glory along with her new paint job to mark 2024 for her year of birth. It’s awesome to see Oliver able to identify the queen, look for eggs and larvae. He’ll make a fine beekeeper and will hopefully carry on the family tradition, 3rd generation beekeeping.

People have been urged to report any sightings.

Today is World Bee Day! 🐝🍯

From parks and gardens to the reverse of the new definitive £1 coin - today is a celebration of the role of bees and other pollinators in our ecosystem. The two on our coin symbolise the 250+ which exist in Britain. 🐝🐝

There’s 3 things in life that really make me happy, Family, Bees and the northern lights! Tonight I got to see them purple as opposed to my regular sighting in my full time job being fluorescent green. The green one is from last week over Canada somewhere 😉 🐝

She’s all painted and now she’s ready to go to the apiary 🐝

Today’s inspection pictures 🐝
The queen also had lovely new paint applied! The ladies are doing extremely well and we can’t wait to see what they can do with the beautiful weather coming up this week!

Stay tuned for more updates but for now, here’s a sneak peak behind the Scenes of the Cariad honey bees 🐝

Hello everyone 🐝

We hope your well and thank you for all the messages. I’ll be working through them over the next 24 hours as I tend to switch off from social over the winter season.

We’ve been up to the hives and can see with great delight everything is going swimmingly. Let’s hope the weather holds up as last year was abysmal. We’re keeping fingers crossed for a bumper of a crop. That’s if the weather works in our favour because the bees are already ahead of where they usually are.

Additionally if you’re looking to start beekeeping this year, let us know as we supply nucs to beekeepers all over the south west region 🐝

Also swarm season is upon us, if you see a swarm, let us know and if we can’t help we’ll put it out to our network of beekeepers that will collect.

Looking forward to another season of beekeeping. This year we’ll be adding videos so you can watch what goes on behind the scenes 😉

See you all soon

Stu, Amy, Nigel and the 🐝 👸 🐝
