Local Honey Dolgellau

Pen y Bryn Apiary has a rich family history rooted in beekeeping that stretches back to the 1930s, when a swarm of bees landed on a plum tree in the front garden of the Edwards family farm, sparking a generations-long passion for apiculture. Based near Dolgellau in Merionethshire, Wales, the apiary has grown from those serendipitous beginnings into a producer of high-quality honey, beeswax, and other apiary products. The Edwards family's dedication to their craft is reflected in the quality of their produce, which includes distinctive products such as their Orange and Honey Marmalade, blending their own Pen y Bryn honey with orange to create a unique preserve. Their products are stocked by specialist Welsh food retailers such as Blas ar Fwyd, highlighting their reputation within the Welsh artisan food community. The apiary is not certified organic but produces vegetarian-friendly products. Pen y Bryn Apiary represents a proud tradition of Welsh beekeeping, combining a deep family heritage with a commitment to producing fine honey and related products from their base in the heart of Snowdonia.
