Chain Bridge Honey Farm Honey, a natural food containing trace elements of vitamins and minerals, has long been known as a source of instant energy as it is easily and quickly digested. Because the Honey Farm apiaries are situated in different locations, they have a variety of honey from different floral sources, including heather honey from the Scottish and Northumberland moors. There are 1500 hives of bees situated at Tweedside. There is also an interesting visitor centre. There are several different kinds of honey: Clear, aromatic, heather and clover honey, available in a variety of pots and jars. Comb honey is also available and honey mustard too is made on the farm. The honey mustard combines a high proportion of honey with either whole grain or powdered mustard, wine and wine vinegar, without the addition of water. The inclusion of garlic or herbs widens the choice. A wide range of pure beeswax candles is available, each with a pleasing aroma and a clear flame to give a mellow light. High quality beeswax polish for preserving fine furniture and leather is another popular line. Propolis ointment, and a wide range of hand and face creams and soap have also been developed at The Honey Farm. |
