Who we are

About the farm

In 2019, after twenty-five years in other careers, we became beekeepers and set up our farm in Buncey (Côte-d’Or). Our certified organic (Bureau Veritas), stationary colonies of the local black bee live in about ten apiaries in the forest of Châtillon-sur-Seine, at the heart of the Parc national de forêts; we never feed them sugar and do not treat them with chemicals or antibiotics. We process our honey cold, without heating, and also make mother-dough gingerbread, honey chutneys and candles. You can order our products in our online shop, and after a phone call we are happy to welcome you to the honey house for a tasting.
