Local Honey in Shropshire

Find honey in Shropshire on the map

Shropshire Beekeepers' Association, founded in 1875, is one of the oldest in the country, and the county now has four associations: Shropshire, Ludlow & District, North Shropshire and Oswestry. Together they have staged a Shropshire Honey Show in Shrewsbury with local honeys on sale, and Ludlow & District part-funds its training apiary by selling its own honey.

The honey changes with the landscape. Ling heather honey is taken from the Long Mynd. In the north, Eden Honey Bees jars each apiary separately: a pale spring honey from oilseed rape, hedgerow and orchard blossom, a summer honey from bramble, clover and lime, and a late crop of Himalayan balsam honey near Ruyton-XI-Towns. Priorslee Honey extracts twice a year, a light rapeseed spring honey and a darker, floral summer one. Shropshire Hills Honey keeps bees on the banks of the Severn just outside Ironbridge, and Topsy Cottage's hives stand inside the walls of the Roman city at Wroxeter. At Ellerdine, north of Telford, Ellerdine Lakes Honey comes from hives at a trout fishery.

Several producers sell locally: Topsy Cottage sells honey and candles from the door, and Home Farm Attingham stocks honey from the neighbouring Sundorne Castle Estate.
