Local Honey in Anglesey

Find honey in Anglesey on the map

Anglesey, historically called Môn Mam Cymru and long known as the bread-basket of Wales, has a mild, oceanic climate. In the south of the island much of the land is grazed permanent pasture rather than arable, so the bees work white clover and bird's-foot trefoil in small fields and old hedge-banks of hawthorn, blackthorn, hazel, sycamore, cherry, elder, gorse and dog rose. Anglesey Bees at Llanddaniel takes a rich, amber spring honey from those hedgerow shrubs and trees, then a paler, more delicate summer honey from bramble, rosebay willowherb and clover.

The Anglesey Beekeepers' Association, founded in 1925, covers the island and the mainland around Bangor and Caernarfon, holds its own honey show and favours the locally adapted Welsh black honey bee over imported strains.

Most island honey is bought direct. Anglesey Bees sells in person and online, and through Anglesey Fine Foods in Valley and Glandwr Butchers in Benllech. The Honey Herd sells raw honey from the island's wildflowers and clover.
