Propolis is the most amazing ingredient
Bees line and protect their hives with this sticky resinous material collected from the sap of trees. They then combine the resin with beeswax and pollens to coat all surfaces of the hive thus protecting them from infection
Propolis is anti bacterial, anti fungal, anti microbial and anti viral.
It has been used forever in various preparations such as throat lozenges, toothpaste, salves and tincture – we met an opera singer who asked for the Propolis Tincture in spray form as they routinely use it to protect themselves as they can’t afford to have any infections or lose their voices!
Our own propolis tincture usually added to our Propolis Salve
30ml spray dispenser, we used to offer it with a dropper but find this spray works really well

Made to a traditional recipe combining our own beeswax with almond oil and a splash of vitamin E (wheat germ) – possibly the simplest and most effective lip balm there is. We have deliberately omitted fragrance or flavour as we believe that folk are tempted to lick their lips more, creating a vicious circle.
Our lip balm gently moisturises leaving a fine film of protective beeswax leaving lovely soft kissable lips, just as nature intended.
The balm in the stick is firmer than that in the tin making it very easy to use, even with gloves on.
Del Brown wrote a superb review about our lip balm – click on his name to read in full.
“….Not everyone wants a lip product with a fruity fragrance, so being fragrance free, both men and women feel comfortable using it. Unlike petroleum based lip balms that just form a barrier on the skin, the natural oils and bees wax in this product penetrate deep into the skin, hydrating dry lips and making them feel soft and comfortable.
This easy to use, fuss free lip balm is a winter essential and fully Del Brown Approved!”
2019 new packaging; a push up cardboard container (containing twice as much lip balm as previously).
9 ml stick – £ 6.50 (a softer lip balm is also available in a tin)
We just had to share some fascinating facts with everyone about our clever bees.
Robin is the artist and drew our bee as well as the ‘skep’ a traditional beehive made from straw and we designed the text to follow a flying bee. Facts such as ‘a queen bee can lay up to 1500 eggs a day’ need sharing.
This is the second incarnation, a development of our first range and these are hand screen printed, on unbleached cotton, in Norfolk by Witts Design, our neighbour at a number of markets – we love to collaborate! https://www.wittsdesign.com/
Presented tightly folded with a corrugated card and label around this is a great present for anyone interested in bees.
We did sell one to someone who was going to embroider and paint the towel to use in the classroom – what a great idea!

This intensive and luxurious foot cream really hits the spot for hard working feet with the addition of 10% urea, it is absorbed easily, leaving your feet feeling supple and pampered. The honey and beeswax ensure that even the weariest feet are revitalised in seconds.
We were asked to make this by a podiatrist who had tried our Silky Hand Cream and realised its effect but she stressed that any good foot cream must have the urea content. It took a year to find a supplier and we were given the thumbs up – it really does work!
Urea not only softens all that hard skin but is also good for chilblains too. This Fragrance Free cream is great for those with sensitive skin.

This is from a traditional and much loved recipe providing a long lasting solution to retaining the good looks and longevity of your wood. Using this cream will remind you of past times !
Turpentine and beeswax are a classic combination for bringing out the best in natural materials and wood will be left with a soft sheen and we add a hint of lavender too.
Apply with a soft cloth and rub in circular motion across the surface. This cream cleans too so the cloth will become discoloured. Leave to soak in and then buff with a fresh cloth.
It’s only necessary to use this cream every few months or if your wood is looking lack lustre and between times dust with a dampened cloth.

I’ve been using this spray on flare ups of itchy skin and have found it very helpful to both cleanse the skin and soothe it. Have bought two lots so far and have been using it on more and more things!
