Rutland's listed honey comes from small-scale beekeeping. St Ambrose's Skep keeps Buckfast bees around the borders of Rutland, Leicestershire and Lincolnshire and sells its honey by season: a pale spring honey from blackthorn, hawthorn, fruit blossom and oilseed rape that sets firmly, and a runny amber summer honey from white clover, bramble and fruit trees. It sells online with delivery by post.
Beekeepers in the county belong to the Leicestershire and Rutland Beekeepers Association, founded in 1882, whose bee tent tours local summer shows, including the Rutland Show, letting visitors suit up and look inside a hive with an experienced beekeeper.
