Both beekeepers listed under Armagh are based in the countryside around Loughgall, the village at the heart of the county's apple-growing tradition. Orchards flourished there on the Cope family's estate, and the Bramley apple was introduced to County Armagh at nearby Cranagill in 1884; each May apple blossom still blankets the landscape around Loughgall Country Park.
Loughgall Honey, a grandfather-and-grandson team, sells its honey – along with honey soap and lip balms – at craft fairs and markets around Northern Ireland, and collects swarms from gardens and homes nearby. Springhill Apiaries is a family-run apiary producing local honey from its own bees; it notes that its lighter summer honey is likely to come mostly from lime trees.
