Local Honey Newcastle

The Travelling Bee Company is a family-run beekeeping business specialising in producing award-winning raw, natural and unprocessed honeys. The business began with beekeeping on the urban fringes of Tyne and Wear and has since expanded, locating bees across North East England, the West Coast of Scotland, and Dumfries and Galloway. Their name reflects their distinctive approach: hives are moved regularly — using what they call their 'Bee-mobile' — to give colonies access to the widest variety of flowers and trees across every season, maximising nectar and pollen quality. The company takes a strongly ethical approach to beekeeping, housing bees in quality hives and employing responsible production methods from hive to jar. Beyond their own locally produced honeys, they also offer a Guest Honey range featuring favourite picks sourced from Europe and beyond. Their product range extends to balms, soaps, and gift sets, all containing their own honey. Honey sold through Croot's Country Store is described as local to the Cowal area of Scotland.
