Both producers listed under Chelmsford keep bees around the city's edges. Brian's Writtle Honey comes from beekeeper Brian Spencer's hives in and around the village of Writtle, and is sold at The Hive Cafe in Oaklands Park, at Kings Farm in Writtle and by arrangement direct from the beekeeper. Wildwing Honey, run by beekeeper James Curtis, produces unprocessed honey from hives across the Chelmsford area and sells through its own online shop.
Both beekeepers are involved with Chelmsford Beekeepers, the local division of the Essex Beekeepers' Association, which holds a members' honey show. Writtle is a popular spot for bees: Tyler's Essex Honey, on the Essex page, also has apiaries there and at Chelmer Village.
