Who we are
About the farm
We are a young family beekeeping business in the Merode forests, founded in 2024; our beekeeper Dylan Elen has kept bees since 2009. We specialise in breeding the endangered native black bee (Apis mellifera mellifera); our colonies stand at several sites across Belgium, with the heart of our apiary in the orchard of Averbode Abbey. We offer only products from our own colonies – acacia, lime, wildflower, creamed wildflower, raspberry and heather honey, pollen and propolis tincture – which you can buy at Waterstraat 5A in Tessenderlo, preferably after calling ahead; we also organise an open day, talks and visits to our apiary.

Write a review
How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
