Our UK raw honey subscriptions are perfect for those who enjoy discovering our beekeepers' favourite honeys. They're just taken from the hive and run through a sieve, nothing else - so all the delicious natural flavours of the gardens, meadows, fields and woodlands that the bees visited remain.
Discover raw honeys just as the bees made them and totally delicious. All from local beekeepers across the UK and delivered straight to the door.
Our subscribers love opening their honey box to discover new honeys and beekeepers!

We carefully select 2 different limited edition British raw honeys to be sent out to our Honey Clubbers each month, so if your Subscribe & Save is for:
-
3 jars you'll get a jar of one honey and 2 of the other one.
-
4 jars you'll be sent 2 jars of each honey in each delivery.
PROVENANCE:
We know exactly where each honey has come from as we meet every beekeeper to chat and visit the bees and landscapes that make each honey. On each label we write:
- the beekeeper’s name
- where the hives are that made the honey
- how many jars of the honey have been produced
Our beekeepers are very proud of what they and their bees have achieved, and so are we – which is why we enjoy making them the star of the show on the label!
OUR BEEKEEPERS
We work with small scale British beekeepers who we visit to talk bees with and see the bees and landscapes that make each honey.
All of our beekeepers…
- are good custodians of their bees and the woodlands, meadows, gardens and fields they keep them in.
- talk to local farmers, landowners, fellow allotment owners and councils to encourage planting for pollinators, sustainable woodland management and protecting the natural landscape for their bees.
Our aim is to bring you special limited edition honeys from more and more British beekeepers: as long as they're good custodians of their bees of course!
WHEN HONEY CRYSTALISES
Our honeys will naturally crystalise as the glucose knits around all the pollen grains in it. This is a good sign as it means there's lots of pollen in the honey and it's enzymes are still active ('supermarket' honey is fine filtered and pasteurised to keep it runny for as long as possible). If you'd like your honey to go back runny then warm it gently or just stir it in. You can heat honey in a low microwave, oven, sunny windowsill or radiator to no more than 35 degrees which is the temperature in the hive.
But please remember all honeys will crystalise as it's a natural process, just at different speeds and in different ways as it's all determined by the nectars that have made your honey. It doesn't mean your honey has gone off!
OUR PACKAGING
Our jars and labels are all British sourced to keep our transport miles and carbon footprint low. The labels can easily peel off the jars once you’ve finished so you can re-use the jar and extend its useful life.
Our honeys are safely packed in Yorkshire hay and British sourced cardboard boxes, Opening the box is a treat with the sweet smell of summer and our honeys nestling inside.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
We’ll do all we can to send you as wide a variety of honey as possible. This usually means it’s rare to get the same honey delivered to you more than twice over the course of a year. However it can happen, especially if the honey harvest is poor due to the weather. We will never take honey that the bees need, so it has been known for us to send out the last of our limited edition honeys to people who have already had them. It's not a major hardship as they’re delicious - but it's important to say!
