Local Honey in Ceredigion
Find honey in Ceredigion on the map
Ceredigion's honey comes from two landscapes: the cwms, hedgerows and farmland near the coast, and the hills of Mid Wales inland. Afon Mêl, at Cross Inn near New Quay, says its wildflower honey comes from sycamore, hawthorn, willow, rosebay willowherb, clover and blackberry around the farm. Its set Welsh Mountain honey comes from knapweed, bell and ling heather and thistle in the mountains of Mid Wales. Tropical Forest Products at Bow Street keeps its own hives under the Wainwright's Bee Farm label, rearing queens near Aberystwyth and taking hives north to the heather hills around Bala for a crunchy heather honey sold by Marks & Spencer. It also imports organic honey from forest beekeepers in Africa.
The county has several beekeeping associations: Aberystwyth, Lampeter and District, Teifiside, and the Welsh-language Cymdeithas Gwenynwyr Cymraeg Ceredigion. Aberystwyth's annual honey show includes a tasting where members try each other's honey from that year's crop.
Afon Mêl is the easiest place to buy in person, with a farm shop, a bee exhibition with live colonies behind glass, and a meadery. Cardigan Bay Honey, from more than 20 apiaries around Ceredigion and north Pembrokeshire, is stocked in selected CK Foodstores. Cambrian View Farm sells raw honey from its smallholding near Tregaron online.
