The Important thing about honey
For the past decade, Wedgewood has been working to create sustainable beekeeping partnerships with African beekeepers and farmers, to ensure that the bees making our honey live happy lives and that the communities that care for them benefit from this valuable African resource. Wedgewood supports local beekeepers in the picturesque Northern KZN Rift Valley, practicing ethical beekeeping practices and using hives donated by Wedgewood. Our Zambian honey originates from the sustainably harvested beekeeping project in the Miombo Woodland. This bee project follows modern beekeeping practices, which protects against the destruction of bees and deforestation. Seasoned apiarist, Matt Walker, runs the Miombo Woodland project, where he educates trainee beekeepers in environmentally friendly, sustainable beekeeping practices.
Miombo woodland Multi Flora, Single Origin Honey - Zambia
This beautiful rich, dark honey originates from the Miombo Woodlands of Zambia. Bees forage for pollen from the many woodland flora species found in this protected area, to create this warm-toned botanical honey. Expect to experience a rich floral signature honey taste, with slight citrus after notes.
