Local Honey Stonehaven

Chris Collett’s Honey & Beeswax Crafts is a small-scale artisan offering based in Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire, created by a passionate local beekeeper dedicated to producing natural, locally made honey and handcrafted beeswax products. The site warmly invites visitors to “experience the sweet taste of nature’s finest nectar” — reflecting a focus on quality, seasonal honey and simple, authentic homemade items.

Chris tends only a handful of hives in diverse locations around the region, meaning each honey variety captures unique flavours from the flowers and seasonal conditions specific to each apiary site. The product range includes traditional honey jars such as Garden Honey, Soft Set Oilseed Rape honey, and honeys from hives at Paul’s Field and Glensaugh, each jar priced affordably and reflecting the terroir of its source.

In addition to honey, the site features a range of natural beeswax items and gift products that make thoughtful presents or small treats. These include natural lip balms in lemon, sweet orange, and peppermint — made from simple ingredients — and a selection of beeswax candles in shapes such as rose, skelp-style miniature beehives, hand-twisted stars, tapered tapers, and slim candles in multiple colours.

Gift boxes are also available, blending honey jars with candles and lip balm — ideal for seasonal or personalised gifting. Buyers are encouraged to contact Chris directly by phone (07719 739239) or via email for orders and enquiries, underscoring the personal, community-oriented nature of the business
