Local Honey in Scottish Borders
Find honey in Scottish Borders on the map
The only listing here is the West Linton and District Beekeepers' Association. Four West Linton beekeepers formed it in 1950, but bees were kept in the village long before: there are bee boles in St Andrew's churchyard, and hives once stood on the Upper Green. Its members keep bees across the surrounding countryside of the Borders, Midlothian, Lanarkshire and Peeblesshire.
The association sells small, numbered lots of honey from its own apiary, set up with Sustainable West Linton and District. The bees forage in the hills around Carlops. Harvests have ranged from a multi-floral honey of ling and bell heather, willowherb and bramble, with garden and hedgerow flowers, to a pressed heather honey. The association is also raising native black honey bee queens with the Borders Bee Breeding Project.
