How to buy

This isn’t a business. We sell our honey to cover our beekeeping costs. To borrow a phrase from the antiques trade, in a good year the bees “wipe their faces”. The new season’s crop comes in at the end of August, and when it’s gone … it’s gone.

Our honey is available in 454g (that’s a full old-fashioned pound) jars for which we charge £10 each, or £40 for five jars. You are welcome to have a mix of both varieties. Wax blocks are £2 each. All you need to do is drop us an email at:

and tell us what you would like. We can then arrange either:

  • for you to pop around to Townend, Caterham-on-the-hill to collect it at a mutually suitable time, and pay by cash or card on collection

  • or for us to drop it round to you and collect cash or card payment on delivery at a time when you will be at home. You need to be within 10 minutes walk of Townend, Caterham-on-the-hill to take advantage of this.

Sorry, we don’t post honey. The whole point is that the best honey is from where you live, there is no need for it to travel many miles. Your own local beekeeper will be very pleased to hear from you. For the wider Croydon area, you can find our beekeeping colleagues through Croydon Beekeepers.
