All the apiaries on the farm are located within a 16 km radius of Combrailles, where the farm is based. The hives remain in the same locations throughout the year, with no seasonal movement.
My local black bees therefore produce mountain honey, with a spring harvest mainly from dandelions, followed by a rich summer harvest reflecting the full floral diversity of the Combrailles : bramble, linden, white clover…
Some of the honey is used to make gingerbread, sweets and nougat.
The bees’ produce is available directly from the farm on Thursdays from 5 pm to 8 pm.
Products are also available in Pontaumur :
– at the Wednesday morning market ;
– at Quinty et Fils ;
– at Brasserie du Valhalla ;
– through the Drive Fermier des Combrailles on local.direct.fr.
