Local Honey Shaftesbury

Redhills Farm Honey is a small family-run apiary based at Twyford, near Shaftesbury, on the edge of the rolling hills of the Blackmore Vale in Dorset. The business began when the owner's daughter expressed an interest in keeping bees, and has since grown to 25 hives over approximately five years. The bees forage the surrounding organic farms, producing a golden blossom honey drawn largely from clover-covered pastures. All honey is raw and extracted directly from the hives without any heat treatment or pasteurisation, preserving naturally occurring enzymes and antioxidants. The honey is never blended with other honeys and contains no added syrup, distinguishing it from many commercial supermarket products. Their product range includes Pure Dorset Blossom Honey, Soft Set Pure Dorset Honey, and Comb Honey, available in 1lb (454g) and 8oz (227g) jars. Honey can be ordered online via their website.
