Local Honey St Albans
C & B Honey
St Albans, AL1 2DARaw honey from C & B Honey, run by the Copley and Buckley families, who keep around 20 hives in and around St Albans, Hertfordshire, including at Carpenter's Nursery.
They took up beekeeping as a hobby in 2007. The honey is extracted by hand, strained only to remove stray bits of wax and bottled in St Albans without heating it or filtering out the pollen, so it sets naturally in the jar and the runny honey is not always crystal clear. Fresh honey is extracted between April and August, and they are happy to tell customers by email when a new batch is ready.
You can buy it at Carpenter's Nursery & Farm Shop in Sandridge – where the honey travels about a mile from hive to shelf – as well as at Loafing bakery in Wheathampstead, West End Barns at Nomansland and Charlie's Coffee & Company on London Road, St Albans.
They also collect honeybee swarms that are easy to reach around St Albans, though not colonies inside buildings.
