The Adopt a Lincolnshire Queen Honey Bee offering is more than a thoughtful gift, it’s part of our commitment to supporting pollinators, nature, and local sustainability. This product has been developed in collaboration with Lincolnshire Honey, an artisan honey producer based in Spalding, Lincolnshire, and a percentage of the profits is donated to support their ongoing work with bee conservation and education.
About Lincolnshire Honey
Lincolnshire Honey is an independent honey producer founded in 2018 by experienced beekeepers with deep roots in beekeeping and a long family heritage in the craft. Their approach emphasises sustainability, responsible beekeeping and protection of pollinators. Their honey comes from apiaries located in the heart of Lincolnshire, reflecting the rich variety of local flora and the seasonal nature of nectar sources.
All honey is small‑batch and harvested locally, offering natural, raw flavour that connects consumers directly to the land where it’s produced. In addition to jars of Lincolnshire honey, their online shop features beeswax products and other eco‑friendly items carefully selected for quality and sustainability.
Workshops and Community Engagement
Lincolnshire Honey also runs educational workshops and “Bees and Blooms” experiences, typically hosted at local locations such as Pulvertoft Flowers. These sessions include an introduction to honey bees and beekeeping, exploration of bee lifecycles, and guidance on encouraging pollinators in gardens. Workshops combine informative talks with hands‑on hive observations and honey tastings, giving attendees a broad insight into the natural world of bees.
Their ethos centres on sustainability, biodiversity and public engagement. By sharing knowledge and fostering appreciation for bees, they contribute to wider community understanding of why pollinators are essential to healthy ecosystems.
Why Your Support Matters
A proportion of the profits from each Adopt a Lincolnshire Queen Honey Bee purchase is donated to Lincolnshire Honey. This support plays a direct role in:
Strengthening bee health and hive management
Beekeepers invest time and resources into hive maintenance, queen rearing and ensuring colonies thrive in changing environmental conditions. Funding from this product helps sustain these vital efforts.
Enhancing environmental benefits
Bees are key pollinators for wild plants and many food crops. Supporting sustainable local beekeeping contributes to biodiversity and helps maintain healthy plant communities across Lincolnshire and beyond.
Expanding educational impact
Your contribution enables Lincolnshire Honey to continue hosting workshops and outreach activities that raise awareness of pollinator importance. This wider engagement helps others adopt bee‑friendly practices in gardens, schools and community spaces.
Supporting Lincolnshire Honey in this way ensures that their care for bees and commitment to nature continues to grow — with positive knock‑on effects for ecosystems, landscapes and the environment.
Why Bees and Pollinators Are So Important
Honey bees and other pollinators play a vital role in ecosystems. They are responsible for pollinating a significant proportion of the world’s flowering plants, including many that provide food, habitat and ecosystem services. By supporting local beekeepers and sustainable beekeeping practices, this product contributes to the long‑term health of pollinators, which in turn supports broader environmental health and resilience.
