Both Alresford producers keep bees in the farmland and woodland around the town. Honey Bee Happy, a family bee farm at Bramdean, has its main apiary on five acres of hedgerow and woodland near Alresford, inside the South Downs National Park. Its other hives, spread across Hampshire, Surrey and Sussex, range from lavender and wildflower sites to borage fields and orchards, so its honeys run from light and fruity to rich and dark. It sells at local farmers' markets and holds pop-up shop days, and also sells bees and runs beekeeping courses.
The Hampshire Bee Company is a bee-removal business: colonies it removes from buildings are rehomed in its rescue apiaries on farmland around Old Alresford. Their multi-floral honey comes from wildflowers, woodland, hedgerows, farmland and fruit orchards, and ranges in colour through the season from light to dark.
