Are you interested in an ethical approach to beekeeping?

Do not hesitate to come and learn my form of beekeeping in one of our traineeship. I do not aspire to revolutionize beekeeping, there are enough books and beekeepers that talk about modern beekeeping.

What do I want to convey as a message? It's simple:

Yes, it is possible to do it another way.

The specificity, intensity and texture of comb honey

This makes all the difference between honey produced on a large scale and honey from a small producer who cares about the well-being of his bees by offering honey exclusively from the meadows, mountain pastures and forests of the Jura and Highlands of Jura. Read more

After having tried producing honey in a modern, traditional way,

using a centrifuge. I did not find the quality that I wanted while preserving my bees from the intensive exploitation that is made of them. After thinking and researching, I tested the "haussette" and its small wooden frames that you have to patiently make yourself,

But what was my surprise when,

one one hand, I saw my bees building with surprising speed the honey combs as the honeydew intensified and on the other hand, the double effect (kiss kool) of savoring my own honey for the first time.

I had this feeling of tasting a majestic honey, simple and complex at the same time. Sometimes with a variety of different lingering aromas, whether it is mountain honey or rather syrupy like linden comb honey with flavors that only nature is able to restore to us while preserving our local bee.Order sliced honeycomb now

Not being a huge business, shipping costs have to be included in the total price.

Are taken into account in these costs: cardboard, wedging elements, time and travel it costs me to get to the nearest post office and to complete the pricing of colissimo.

From 0.1 to 5 kg, the shipping costs are identical and then calculated in blocks of 5 kg. I try to keep costs to a minimum. When you order an item at 10 €, the shipping costs are almost the same compared to an order for several items.

By trusting me with your orders, I guarantee you an authentic, quality product from the Jura. You thus allow me to accomplish my task of bee shepherd and to participate fully in the preservation of our local and native black bee. I thank you for the trust you have placed in me.
