Products

Leigh’s Bees make a wide range of honeys, and availability varies according to the season. Most are bottled in 350g jars. Rare honeys or those for which achieving a bottled state is particularly time consuming are in 250g (cold spun Ivy and Sea Lavender) or 225g (cold pressed Heather) jars.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][vc_single_image image=”543″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Apple Orchard Honey is gathered by Leigh’s Bees whilst pollinating Fenland apple orchards. Other spring blooms are also in flower. This results in a delightful honey with a slight apple aftertaste.

Turning the moors purple in August, Heather produces a honey distinct in flavour and texture. By cold pressing, the honey is packed with tiny air bubbles.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][vc_single_image image=”532″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Hedgerow Honey is gathered by Leigh’s Bees from hedgerows, meadows and farmland. It sets to a very smooth texture and has a mild flavour.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][vc_single_image image=”170″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Cold Spun Ivy Flower Honey is a bonus crop if autumn is mild, providing a final nectar flow before the onset of winter. We only harvest Ivy Honey if there is a surplus above and beyond the bees own consumption needs. They forage Ivy Flowers in the hedges and woodland around their home base at Narford, producing a pale, smooth honey which sets hard soon after bottling.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][vc_single_image image=”473″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Lime Tree Honey is gathered by Leigh’s Bees working Lime Trees (Linden) and other flowers from the surrounding countryside.

Whilst it is an inexact science, this combination should set to a soft consistency.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][vc_single_image image=”166″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Spring Blossom Honey is gathered by Leigh’s Bees foraging Spring blooms, trees and fields of Oilseed Rape.

It sets on the comb resulting in a consistency and texture similar to hard fudge. Eat in ‘bits’ as an alternative to confectionery, slice on to toast or try with blue cheese.

We occasionally have Lime Tree and Sea Lavender honeycomb.

The honeycomb blocks are not currently available by mail order.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]
