Description
Our honey comes from hives on the Stansted Estate that are looked after by John Geden from Sinah Common Honey.
John looks after 200 colonies of bees on 15 apiary sites, and the quality and taste of the honey is superb. The hives at Stansted are sited under some lovely lime trees overlooking South Downs chalkland pasture that is slowly but surely increasing it’s wildflower diversity to include rarities such as the green-winged orchid.
The honey is raw and untreated, and John does not use any form of chemicals to fight disease or manage parasitic pests such as the varroa mite, instead we use natural remedies and modern apiary management techniques
