WINWOOD HONEY
Local honey produced in Lloyd Park Surrey
Family beekeepers. We have a little Apiary in Lloyd Park Croydon, UK, where the bees have over 45 acres of hedge rows, blackberries and wild flowers to forage.
OUR STORY
Launched in 2021 as a garden hobby we have found the keeping of bees and production of honey to be a hugely rewarding experience. ​Our aim is to ensure the best natural environment for the bees to thrive and for the production of the highest quality honey.​ Each week brings new learnings for both me and the family.

OUR HONEY
Natural. Raw. From the bees to you.
​
All our honey is produced locally here in the UK from our Apiary in Croydon, Surrey, CR0 5HN. There are no additives or additional processing beyond filtering to ensure it is we have a clear runny honey.
​
Our honey is available in 454g (1lb) and 250g (1/2 lb) jars from our Apiary in Croydon. Send us an email, and we will be happy to show you around, talk about the wonders of beekeeping and help you choose your local honey.
2024 - That's a wrap
As the honey season draws to a close we can reflect on the triumphs and learnings as a whole. This was our first season extract 4 different colour grades and with over 100kgs from 3 hives it has been a very productive year. What could have been better, performing more splits thus reducing overcrowding our biggest hives and reducing the swarming instincts later in the season.
AUGUST 2024
Having extracted off the light honey, August gifted us with a wonderful Dark Amber honey. Blackberries and Lloyd Park wild flowers have all contributed to this caramel, almost molasses tasting honey.
July 2024
What a wet Spring! Constant rain kept the bees stuck in side far longer than normal meaning we had a couple of early swarms, helping us double up our hives. Then when it did stop, everything flowered at once and what you see here are our award winning capped honey frames full of white clover honey. Beautifully light and very floral tasting
AUGUST 2023
2023's harvest is just around the corner! It's been a challenging year, with the wet Spring leading to a couple of hive splits and a smaller Spring harvest than last year.
AUGUST 2022
Spanning late Spring and early Summer this honey has a strong floral taste from the surrounding Apple and Plum trees, Rose bushes and wild flowers including Thistle, Trifolium and Lavender.​Hive 1: Our second batch from our new 2022 Queen.
SPRING 2022
Early spring batch. This was our first honey extraction from Hive 1. This honey is our sweetest yet, runny and powerful. As this was our first batch stock is low and is presented in a mixture of jar logos.​Hive 1: First batch from our new 2022 Queen.
