Leicestershire's beekeepers are a quiet highlight of the county's food scene. The Bee Farmer in Ashby de la Zouch produces high quality honey and runs workshops teaching the craft to new beekeepers. Dave's Leicestershire Honey comes from hives managed at Foston and Wibtoft in the south of the county, with honey sold direct from the beekeeper. Market Harborough Honey Co produces raw, unpasteurised, unfiltered honey straight from the hive.
Supermarket honey travels an average of 2,200 miles, blended from sources across multiple continents. Your local Leicestershire beekeeper is likely under 10 miles away. Browse the store cupboard producers below to find what's near you.
