The Honeybees

Viktor and Lucy Zaichenko are the Honeybees - Viktor is an expert bee farmer based in the North Oxfordshire Cotswolds and Lucy is his Queen bee!

Viktor is from a beekeeping family in Ukraine and so honey production is something he has had a full experience of throughout his life. Between them, they take care of every aspect of the honey production - they make the hives, they monitor the bees' activity (no mean feat across multiple sites), filter and cream the honey - Viktor's parents visit once a year to add their expertise to the breeding of their Queen bees.

Their hives are kept on various different farms across Oxfordshire ......... Look out for their speciality honeys such as the horse chestnut and hawthorne - very limited quantity and utterly delicious! Also good old fashioned honey and raisin flapjacks, melt in the mouth Ukrainian honey cake, muffins, beeswax candles, pure bee pollen and various other products depending on the season and availability.

Oh yes, and the honey is delicious!
