Nick's Bees
Based in Harlow, Essex
Nick's Bees is a small-scale beekeeping business run by Nick Holmes, who has been keeping bees since 2010 as a hobby on the Hertfordshire Essex border. The business specializes in producing 100% natural English local honey, which is collected from wildflower meadows, allotments, gardens, and countryside fields. The honey is harvested from Nick's own apiaries and is jarred by location and season, resulting in a diverse range of honeys with unique flavors. Nick sells his honey directly from home and at local farmer’s markets. In addition to honey, Nick's Bees also produces beeswax, which is a byproduct of honey processing. The beeswax is primarily used to make natural candles, which are noted for their distinctive aroma. The business shares stories and insights about beekeeping, honey harvesting, and related topics through its blog. All products are made from Nick's own bees, ensuring local provenance and quality.
