Welcome To My Apiary

About Us Here at Hive and Honey Apiary

I am an Ontario operator of a small apiary in beautiful Bruce County, Canada where I have chemical treatment free hives, on our farm. I do things here the “Old Fashion Way” by allowing the bees to do things their way, helping them along and keeping an eye on them should they need me. Result? … A healthier Honey bee.

My approach is not to force bees to do what I want, but to help them do what they want to do.

They will always instinctively do what is best for them. I use no antibiotics or pesticides in my hives or on our farm, I plant herbs and flowers to help the bee colonies.

I've never use artificial foundation or extractors and only harvest the straining method, never heating the honey.

I am now in year 8, I have never fed sugar water, I re- queen often and always leave enough honey on to help the bees winter well.
